"Training for long distance running, trying to squeeze in some strength exercises."
Darebee has been in my life for few years now, and I'm always coming back here. Because of lack of support system in last few months, I have been falling back in my inconsistent schedule. Considering the fact that consistency is key, I will try to work out every day, and check it in this thread.


Some general information about me:

female, working sedentary job and studying a lot, hiking a lot, actively running (joined running school, goal is to run long distance trail; longest run was 15 km few years ago), working on a large garden with a greenhouse, trying to fit a life in a busy schedule.


My goal is to do any type of workout every day.

I will try to do Workout of the day and Exercise of the day. If it's cardio workout, and I have been on a run that day, I'll skip it.

I've been making my way through Bootcamp program, I'm currently stuck on day 26 out of 60, so I'll try to continue that journey and report it in my daliy check in.


I'm sorry for my broken english since it's not my native language, also sorry for the long read, and hopefully I'll be in contact daily.

Thank you for reading 😊

May challenge day 21:v:
Bootcamp day 38 :x:

Yesterday I skipped my darebee workouts because of the race. It went well, I managed to get a new PR on 5 km, but overall it could be better.

Calf muscle were giving me a hard time, and heat, humidity and full sun were not helping at all. Probably had a mild case of sunstroke. Next time I must remember to bring a hat and some sunscreen.

Can't wait for next race, and also would like to try my luck with trail running.

Also, thank you for your nice wishes 😊

Thank you all :heart:

Day 18

Exercise of the day :v:


It was a busy day with a lot of tasks around the house and in the garden, so I didn't have time to do my darebees, but I did manage to squeeze in "exercise of the day" before bedtime ❤️

Tomorrow I'm going on a little trip, so there will be very little time for exercise, but I will try to find some time. If not, I'll probably do a bigger workout session on Thursday.

Day 23 (Saturday)

Went on a 5 km run in the fields with boyfriend and accidentally run another PR.

(Sunday) - went on family party, had 0 time and energy for exercise

Day 24 (Monday)

Run: 15 min ( 2 min run + 15 sec walk ), strength exercises + 1 km fartlek

Since I'm still recovering from yesterday's party, today's darebees will be skipped. Tomorrow I'm also going on a little trip, so I probably won't have much time for my darebees.

Regular programming will continue on Wednesday hopefully 😊

Day 30 (Monday)

Run: 15 min (non stop) + running drills + strength exercises + 8 min easy cool down

Yesterday was very hard and emotionally exhausting day, running helped with my gloomy mood, but I didn't have any energy left for my darebees.

Today I'll try to make up for it.

Also, I signed up for short 8km trail run and I'm eyeing another one for July. It is a little longer (15 km), but it has a lot of downhills, so it looks promising.

Military fit plus* day 1 :v:

* This program will be challenging, but I believe I'll manage to complete it.

8 km trail run/walk/hike

Practiced for the race next week, uphills are hard, downhills are in very bad condition so it is a little harder to gain momentum and speed. Also rain started pouring, so it gave me a free shower.

And my Garmin had some sort of bug and lead me the wrong way. But it was fun nonetheless.
