I&#8217;m not sure why they have to call it a Long Run&#8230;. when it is only 2.31miles!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have decided to run on the treadmill for the time being&#8230;. Although I would prefer to be outdoors I just can&#8217;t seem to get the pacing right&#8230;. I tend to run too fast to start off with and feel totally out of breath. I always think that I sound like a steam train ( I probably do to be fair). My logic is if I opt to use the treadmill I can just set the pace I am supposed to run at which is 12.57 min\/mile or 4.6 mph. I really do need to remember that I have to run for 30 minutes rather than running as fast as I possible can to complete 2.31 miles. The temptation to push the buttons to increase the speed is always there but I keep telling myself&#8230; You have a plan.. stick with the plan&#8230; just trust the plan and you will be alright&#8230;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OK&#8230;. So now I need to learn to ignore my watch as my watch kept telling me that I was ahead of target&#8230;. and also behind the target.. Not sure how this can be when I have set the pace on the treadmill&#8230;. Mind you I did notice at some points I was further up the treadmill&#8230; then I would drift off towards the back!! Normally I have difficulties in running in a straight line&#8230; This is something that I still struggle with on a treadmill!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get in I have done it!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7710-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-73\" style=\"width:617px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7710-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7710-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7710-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7710-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7710.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Long Run 30 minutes:- 2.31 miles<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7711-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-72\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7711-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7711-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7711-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.visualswift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/img_7711.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Long Run:- 30 minutes (2.31 miles)&#8230;.. that&#8217;s the plan for today.
