Amazing feeling to have managed my first 8k, week 4. I set out unsure whether l would do 5k or 8k, but felt good so kept going! I even managed to put in a new hill!๐Ÿ˜Š

I love reading all your posts, they inspire me to keep going.

Happy running everyone ๐Ÿ˜€

Oh well, now you have done 8 it would be rude not to just run for 10-12mins extra next time out and do the 10 :)

Woo hoo! Good work! Keep going, keep goingโ€ฆit is amazingly manageable, once you have broken that 8k seal. :-) xx

Well done Abaggs , I'm so pleased you ran 8k. Doesn't it feel good to run for longer than you intended to? Now this is where I totally fall down, as my canal route doesn't have hills, for obvious reasons, well, unless water is suddenly to start dissobeying Newton's laws! I keep meaning to change my route and take in a hill or two, but honestly, running on the towpath is so lovely. I have so much respect for you intrepid hill runners!! You'll be at that 10k mark before you know it!

All the best, Neil :)
