My longest run so far 😊

β€’29 Replies

Morning All 😊

Hope you are enjoying your long weekend 😊

I have just completed a 7km run...it wasnt terrible quick but i was ill in the night having eaten a takeaway that my soon-to-be-ex pretty much forced me to eat!!!

It was pouring with rain when i left the house...but it stopped eventually & i enjoyed it other than the fact that i was not feeling too great!!!

I am actually quietly chuffed though 😊

Looks like u had some hills tho and it’s a longer distance so you used your energy efficiently so you could run further! . You are a lot quicker than me!

β€’ in reply toAndG

I guess so...theres lots of hills here due to cycle paths & lots of underpasses...they go down under the road then inevitably back up again...which is always a bit of a killer!!!😣

I'm trying to think of a takeaway I would have to be forced to eat.

β€’ in reply toSlowLoris

Haha πŸ˜‚πŸ€£ ironically its him still being here & the way he is behaving that is making me feel stressed & nauseous & unable to eat so yesterday was a double whammy!!!😣

Brilliant run!! With all those hills, if you carry on like that, you're soon going to train for trail ;-) I'm going to work on a little elevation (but nothing compared to what you have as everything is very flat where I live) for the next routes after I reach 10K and I'm sure I'll find it very tough.

I would love some flat runs πŸ€£πŸ˜‚ some days its a real.struggle!!!

I like that bit in the film What Women Want when they’re working up the advertising theme for sportswear, all around the reliability of β€˜the run’ vs the fickleness of relationships! Anyway, sounds as though the running is helping you through a tricky time - i hope the β€˜rocky road’ gets smoother soon!

β€’ in reply toGillma

Thankyou 😊 running is definately benificial for many reasons 😊

That’s amazing. I’ve never been past 5k so to think you did 7 when not feeling your best is admirable πŸ‘πŸ‘

β€’ in reply toVish-runs

Thankyou 😊 i will enjoy it more another time once i am feeling better 😊
