Learn to Run

Week 9

You're a Runner!

"The thing is... You have to engage with life to have a life."

Frank Deford, sportswriter and commentator

The Weekly Preamble

Notes, techniques and quick tips to help you feel your best and get the most out of your runs each week. Read this section before you get started with your weekly workouts.

Coach's Notes

You have “arrived” as a runner! Be proud of how far you've come. I am! It’s mind over matter now. I hope you are truly finding that personal rhythm, ticking over easily, and are perhaps even a little surprised at how easy it is each time you complete the prescribed run interval.


Keep it up this week. You’ve done it all now, and I hope you are starting to understand how personal your own running really is, and that you can mix it up as long as you stay with your own comfortable rhythm.

 

Some of you are already in a stage where you don’t want or need the walk break. That’s a good place to be too!  Again, enjoy your runs as you feel – and remind yourself how far you have come in only a couple of months – way to go!
