Got out last night and did 6.3 miles in 59.57 mins!!!!
I felt good and decided to try the route out. There is a big jump from 4.5 to 6.3 but it was a great evening for running the only thing was the head wind home bound direct in my face !!
Another thing I found is previous to last nights run I always tried to breathe in through my nose and out through my mouth!! I was reading somewhere yesterday that the proper way to breathe is in & out through your mouth. I tried this last night (took a while to get used to it) but it seamed to work in terms of no stitches and feeling fitter!!
Anyone any thoughts or tips about breathing correctly?0 -
Good running, EC!!!
In terms of breathing, we've had this discussion in the past I think.
I would say just get fit. Why think about how to breathe? Its akin to thinking about how to digest or how to blink - they are things that you just dont need to do because the body is pretty clever and does all this stuff for you!
If the breathing is a bit ropey at the moment its only because your system is getting used to the new regime - it will sort itself out!:DGt NW 1/2 Marathon 21/2/2010 (Target=1:22:59) (6:20/mile) 1:22:47 (6:19):j:j

Its not that the breathing is ropey its good and I understand what you mean by your body doing this!!
I feel from my perspective that if I concentrate on my breathing I tend to feel & run better!!:j0 -
Sometimes when i've been running for a long period of time I catch my self breathing quite hard... at which point i think "what you doing" and seem to be able to go back to normal breathing... but maybe im just a freek??

Excellent new distance last night EC - 10k will be fine now you've done that!
And pink - WOW :T:j That target will be reached in no time! Becky's plan is giving you structure and goals but you have to carry it out and do the exercise/watch the diet/etc. so you should take credit too :beer:0
