8k in the bag!

8 Replies

Well 8K in the bag this morning,albeit on the treadmill. Weather wet and rotten so I decided to tread it today. So it was a hard,hot slog! The first 6K was brill and I thoroughly enjoyed it but the last 2K was the slog.

The pace was slow but I was happy with that. Hee as I was going along I did have ideas above my station and thought that I could smash 10k into the wall! No way my body was telling me otherwise!🤪🤪So will leave that for another day.i was indeed though one sweaty Betty 😝😝

Anyhoo onto WK6 .

Take care all and happy running😀😀

That looks great, and I'm not surprised you opted for the treadmill. In some ways I wish I had done that as I would have avoided my close encounter with a pile of 💩

Whoop !! well done Maggie 🤗

Thank you Windoze! 😀😀

Over 8k on the treadmill. Well done! I dont think I could manage the boredom. I get very hot on it too, even in our conservatory, which is not mega warm in winter. X

Thanks Flick ! I did get quite warm I must say. However I had my music and followed this runner on the treadmiller.com site. This is a good distraction.you never overtake her ha! but you’ll always run behind her.

It’s set in Norway so scenery is also a good distraction. However I do enjoy running outside more. The treadmill is a good fallback for when weather is yuck!

Hope your well Flick.

Happy running😀😀

Well done to you on all counts, not least running for over an hour on the treadmill! Don't know how you do it.
