Hello Folks!
I asked for advice this morning, then went out to do what felt right at the time...
I started running again at the beginning of Oct. and i am being as careful as possible, but my nature is reckless! My run has been 4 min walk, 1 min run, 3 min walk, 2 min run, 3 min walk, 2 min run, 3 min walk, 1 min run, 3 min walk = 22 mins for the last 5 weeks not including a recovery week. So, today I added a 2 min run and 3 min walk. I walked quite fast and ran as slow as I could, MOST of the time this was ok, but my Garmin allerted me that my hr was too high more than once. My goal hr range is 119 - 139 and my Avg today was 133, highest 157.
My hr returned to normal after 10 mins, so I hope that i will not be exhausted, I have a rest day planned tomorrow ...
I will get advice, and I will see how i go, i know there is no point in striding ahead before being ready for it...
Today i have also washed my mum's car (in the car wash) and set up this blog, which took So much nerve!
Love szgr

You are off to a great start, welcome to the world of blogging :-)
Your current training doesn't look reckless at all, I wish most beginner runners start with walking breaks AND asking advice too!
You'll find that your blog will help motivate and keep you accountable with your training! I've subcribed to your blog and will visit it often...although I won't post everytime I will be lurking in the background!!
Thanks for your support!!! Being sensible is so difficult, i wish i could push harder but last year when i did.... I was blown off course by one 10k race and the aftermath...
I LOVED it tho, so will aim to get there again slowly
You're doing great! Welcome to blogging, it really is fun. To answer you question on my blog, I've been running almost 3 years now. I agree with Bruce, you're doing really well with your running. Remember-if it was easy, everyone would do it!
With your permission, I'll add your blog to my site.
