I stuck with the game plan to run at a slow steady pace. It was a bit annoying though&#8230; as my watch was telling me that I was running a lot faster than the treadmill. My watch told me that I ran 3.13 miles in 40 minutes with an average pace of 12:45. Unfortunately, I wasn&#8217;t able to take a photo of the treadmill workout as it disappeared from the screen. So I decided to record it that I ran 3 miles in 40 minutes which worked out that I ran at a pace of 13.20 minute\/mile. I am not sure if I was that slow as it did start to feel like hard work towards the end.. Plus in my head my legs felt as though they were running fast!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"471\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2180-471x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2877\" srcset=\"https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2180-471x1024.png 471w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2180-138x300.png 138w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2180-768x1670.png 768w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2180-706x1536.png 706w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2180-942x2048.png 942w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2180.png 1206w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 471px) 100vw, 471px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Game Plan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whilst I was running tonight, I checked my form&#8230;.. I started to think about how my arms were swinging.. Were they crossing my mid line? It is a bit difficult to do this without looking at a video or a mirror of yourself running. I felt as though my right arm swings correctly but my left one felt as though it was was coming across slightly. I remembered what Penny from YouCanCoaching taught me when I was in Barcelona after few glasses of wine about hips to the lips&#8230; It may not have been that but it is how I remember it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I started to get tired at 33 minutes&#8230; I thought about driving my arms backwards and dug in deep and reminded myself.. That I have come along way in my training. I have been consistent in turning up on a regular basis and gradually increasing the time\/mileage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 40 minutes went past relatively quickly but I think that was because I broke it down into sections in my head. Plus I was listening to a audiobook which also helped as it made me focus upon my running form as I was actually listening to Anatomy for Runners! The last few minutes I did switch it up a bit and started to listen to some music. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2182-576x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2874\" srcset=\"https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2182-576x1024.jpeg 576w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2182-169x300.jpeg 169w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2182-768x1365.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2182-864x1536.jpeg 864w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2182-1152x2048.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2182-scaled.jpeg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Get in&#8230; 40 Minutes Done!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2184-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2875\" srcset=\"https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2184-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2184-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2184-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2184-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2184-2048x1152.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Jorge ran too<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"471\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2185-471x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2876\" srcset=\"https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2185-471x1024.png 471w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2185-138x300.png 138w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2185-768x1670.png 768w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2185-706x1536.png 706w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2185-942x2048.png 942w, https:\/\/louisegregory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2185.png 1206w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 471px) 100vw, 471px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Kind of results&#8230;.
