I did 7k on Sunday with no phone or watch, just preset route. โ€˜Twas hard at times but got there and felt good after, no aching limbs, very happy chappy ๐Ÿ˜€....going for 5 miles on Thurs, will record it this time ๐Ÿ˜Š

Happy running all ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

There was a humourous point during the run. I saw another runner running towards me in the distance and decided Iโ€™d up the pace, as you do, and blow me didnโ€™t he do the same ๐Ÿ˜‚

Said our good mornings as we passed then back to normal pace lol

Wow, brilliant- very impressed. I am still just consolidating 30 min runs & aiming for a park run.

I love the speeding up for another runner! I had a speed up moment yesterday so I didn't get run over in the dark - I felt like I had another runner's legs for a few seconds. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Tbh, Iโ€™m surprising myself Elfe5. If youโ€™re feeling good, why not go for it. Iโ€™ve registered for a 10K Park Run on Jan 21st so itโ€™s something to aim for... itโ€™s the way I motivate myself ๐Ÿ˜Š

Go for the Parkrun, youโ€™ll be surprised how quick the time goes and, for me, I found it easier having people around me ๐Ÿ˜Š

Good luck and happy running ๐Ÿ˜Š

Nicely done Ted! Enjoy the journey to 10k, I loved it even more than the journey to 5k. I love the speed up as passing another runner ๐Ÿ˜†, I think we've all done that!

Well done Ted, that's absolutely great. I reckon you can get to 10k by the end of January ๐Ÿ˜

Thanks Chris, 5mile tomorrow....providing my over indulgence during the festivities doesnโ€™t hinder my performance ๐Ÿ˜Š

Thats great Ted...Well done๐Ÿ˜Š...

I was advised that the thought of doing these longer distances is harder than actually running it...and they were right ...๐Ÿ˜‰ Believe in yourself, nice and steady.

Keep up the good work๐Ÿ˜Šxx
