Unfortunately it wasn't a case of third time lucky :(
This was has me beat up to now and it doesn't make sense after being able to run 20 minutes non stop why 2 x 10 minutes with a 3min walk inbetween should be so hard..? The first ten minute run is actually okay (surprisingly so actually) but that second ten minute seems impossible right now.
I blogged about the first attempt in my 'running in my view' post. I tried again on Tuesday, managed 6 minutes of the last ten and then ran out of road - I know I could have (should have!) turned round and added a loop on for the sake of 4minutes but I just couldn't bring myself to think of that. Tried again today and in my defence it was incredibly windy, I was okay for the first ten minutes, then turned a corner, the wind hit and it was just too tempting to take the short cut home again. I just don't seem to have the determination I want / need to crack this this week.
To put a positive spin on this though, those 3 attempts have covered 10k in total, though not all running and according to runtastic have burnt 1,300 calories so that is a day of free food!
I'll try again at the weekend - fingers crossed for me please!
