WOW there is a stunning 5km stretch of promanade running right along the beach all the way from the casino to ushaka marine world, it is cool because at the beach there is always a breeze, although if its blowing against you it could be a challange haha, nice and flat the whole way which is nice for me starting out. So this may become a common running spot for me. May start with one way first the 5km then go for there and back a good 10km. Also it is lovely and social plenty of bikers and runners to smile at and greet, very pleasing.
Note to self ... i really really wanted to try my hand at surfing, yet anouther way to keep active and fit, build up my stamina, ... until when i as on the promanade i was looking out over the beautiful ocean and noticing exactly how rough and choppy it was, now im not so sure im brave enough. But i think some day soon i MUST at least "suck it up princess" and give it a try.
Bought this month runners Magazine, and there was a piece of information i found very interesting to me. For ages and ages Nat has been telling me it is difficult to raise my heart rate and i recover very very quickly. I like the recovering quick part, of course, but not being able to get my heart rate up means not as many cals burnt. So in this article there was research that found if you have an overactive thyroid your heart rate is high, me ... having an underactive pondered then, well if over means high heart rate, maybe under means low heart rate. I will look into this some more.
blog again soon
