Zaggora Challenge - Day 6

C25K - W6D2

Oh dear, that was not a good run! I've been taking water with me lately due to the hot weather but mistakenly thought I'd be ok this morning - wrong! I haven't felt this bad since week 1 when I couldn't even run for 60 seconds! Ouch....a big 22 minute run is coming on Saturday, hopefully today was just a bad day at the office.

As the hotpants, they are still seemingly working their magic. I'm not sure whether to do a 'half-way' measurement tomorrow to mark the first week, but I doubt I'll see much difference. One thing for sure if that they make me work HARD. I've been wearing them everyday, ensuring I am as active as possible. For a couple of days it was just a case of sorting the washing or going to band, but most of the days I have been doing something more strenuous in them (running, mowing the lawn, Zumba etc.) I definitely sweat more from running, today was certainly no exception, which probably increases the need to take water when I'm out.

After every use I rinse them through in the shower, but still stick them in the washing machine once a week. I was quite worried about washing them everyday, but so far there are no ill effects, but that's only after a week. They dry very quickly and this is without rinsing or wringing, they are often ready to wear the next day.

Anyway, I'm still overheating from that run, I might go and sit in the freezer to cool down.
