I hadn’t started the June #rtpjunemonthlychallenge until now due to illness. However today I did a mini workout of days 1-4 & now I’m up-to-date! The cake? That was carb loading before the workout 😂🤣

Today was my last run in Oz for 7 weeks. I leave for Sweden tomorrow. It was a foggy start this morning but cleared to a sunny day for my run this afternoon. Up early tomorrow to catch he bus to Sydney. 🚍🛫

A chilly start for parkrun #139 at Wagi Bridge. An undulating 2 lap course. #21 for the year. E2E were out in force this morning - lots of green out there! For me it was a PB at this parkrun so very happy.

It was a very chilly early morning run session today. Which then turned into a beautiful sunny day…again. A lower body strength session + core workout later in the morning.

Started the day with a functional fitness workout + day 22 #rtpcorechallenge. A good warmup for an easy run with 12 x 30s strides. Walked to the shops to do some shopping. Another gorgeous autumn day ☀️

@GreenCoastPeak It certainly does!

@tmats0305 @KristinHillius @NurseJolanda68 @HeatherJSweet @MyPeakChallenge Thankyou! ❤️ Still managing to get it done!

[Cathy 🦉 @cathyn61]

A freezing cold start to the day but no wind. Ran the Canberra Runners 10km event this morning. Dressed appropriately but didn’t warm up much during the run. Happy with my run 😃👍🏻

Day 21 #rtpcorechallenge done early this morning after an arms/core session. Ran a very easy 45mins after dental visit on a sunny morning. Lunch with a friend followed by school pickup.

What a freezing cold & windy day! 🥶 Started with a short 3km run before heading off to parkrun (#138) to walk it with Ruth. I have a 10km event tomorrow. Day 18 #rtpsbchallenge ✅ No wind tomorrow please 🙏🏻

A touch chilly for my run this morning but as it was 10 x 30s taper intervals I soon warmed up! Followed up with a lower body workout + core session. A lovely walk in the sunshine this afternoon.
@KristinHillius @NurseJolanda68 @HeatherJSweet @MyPeakChallenge

[Cathy 🦉 @cathyn61]

Ran half paths/half trails this morning after doing a functional bodyweight workout + day 15 #rtpabchallenge. This afternoon I walked to the shops to get some things and then walked home. Perfect day for walking!
@KristinHillius @NurseJolanda68 @HeatherJSweet @MyPeakChallenge

[Cathy 🦉 @cathyn61]

Another gorgeous sunny day ☀️ Started with an upper body strength workout + day 14 #rtpabchallenge before running 6 x 1min intervals outdoors (inc wu/cd). Then a lovely lunch with friends.
@KristinHillius @NurseJolanda68 @HeatherJSweet @MyPeakChallenge

[Cathy 🦉 @cathyn61]

Start of another week & only 2 weeks until I go to Sweden. Lower body strength session + core exercises this morning & a walk this afternoon. There’s blue sky and sunshine today!
@KristinHillius @NurseJolanda68 @HeatherJSweet @MyPeakChallenge

[Cathy 🦉 @cathyn61]

A dull drizzly grey morning turned into a patchy blue sky this afternoon, perfect for an easy 10km run. Day 12 #rtpabchallenge completed this afternoon - up to 4 sets of each exercise.
@KristinHillius @NurseJolanda68 @HeatherJSweet @MyPeakChallenge

[Cathy 🦉 @cathyn61]

A soggy Saturday parkrun this morning but it could’ve been worse. Heavier rain fell later and hasn’t stopped. Trying to get my time <27mins - so close. Day 11 #rtpabchallenge done this afternoon.
@KristinHillius @NurseJolanda68 @HeatherJSweet @MyPeakChallenge

[Cathy 🦉 @cathyn61]

Got my walk in early this morning as it’s forecast to be a wet couple of days. Then met with friends for lunch - a lovely catchup ❤️ Did an upper body/back + day 10 #rtpabchallenge this afternoon: 20 reps/3sets! 😳
@KristinHillius @NurseJolanda68 @HeatherJSweet @MyPeakChallenge

[Cathy 🦉 @cathyn61]

Lower back is still sore but some movement does help. Did a short HILIT session + day 8 #rtpabchallenge - 15 reps/3 sets 🥵 Went for a trail run - up & down hills, what was I thinking?! 🤔
@KristinHillius @NurseJolanda68 @HeatherJSweet @MyPeakChallenge

[Cathy 🦉 @cathyn61]

Had a really bad night’s sleep so didn’t exactly spring out of bed this morning! Low energy levels. Still, did 16 x 30s hill repeats on a chilly morning.
@KristinHillius @NurseJolanda68 @HeatherJSweet @MyPeakChallenge

[Cathy 🦉 @cathyn61]

Back home after a week away. Went for a walk this afternoon enjoying autumn’s colours. Did day 5 of #rtpcorechallenge + other core exercises.
