Made it in under 45mins Thats right 6K Friday
Treadmill day – for a while now I have been doing 6K on the treadmill on Fridays hence ‘6K Friday’ normally struggle to make it in under 45 mins. (Photo on Instagram to prove it (old_fit_and_losing_weight))Today I did ok – not only did I do it ok but crikey smashed out some short sprints at 12 whatevers speed on the dial. Sat on 10 for my long runs I do it because I need to keep my lungs working as they are a bit dodgy according to the Doc. Normally I run at 9.5 but today I upped it to 10 WooHoo 4 or 5 years ago I couldn’t do 8 for any longer then 20 seconds. So you guys and girls out there with dodgy lungs it is possible to work those babies into a fairly acceptable state and keep them there.
I was diagnosed as to having 48% lung capacity – not the case anymore – I got things I want to do, kids and beautiful grand kids I want to see how they grow – no time for bein’ crook I can tell ya……………. Plus I need them to go windsurfing – hard to stay out there with dodgy lungs – in fact one of the guys we windsurf with has actually had a full lung transplant and smashes it out there on the water. How good are we – that deserves a smiley face 🙂
So it means a lot to me when I get things going on the treadmill on anything over 8 for 20 seconds – all I did was believe that I could do it and I am – so can you……………..
Work time
Have a fantastic day
