So today I ran my second 8k . It was a bit grim in places but I can at last now imagine running 10k. I have signed up for Race for Life, Norwich on May 12th . way to go!

Well done dazeydog, if you can run 8k you can definitely do 10. Good for you for signing up for the race for life, a very good cause. 🏃‍♀️👏👏

Woo hoo! Well done. For some reason I thought that 8 sounded like quite a serious run and close enough to the 10 that I could see myself doing it. Ive signed up for a 10 in March to keep myself motivated. :-)

Well done. Feels very brave signing up for an event, I think. Seems a bit more serious that jogging around my local lanes!

That’s the reason I did it - no backing out, because I’m a coward anyway but I’ve had to pay for this! 😂

I found 8km exciting, and while I did think I would be able to get to 10km I never expected to do it more than once. I have since repeated working up to 10 and it was easier the second time. You will get there and be able to do your race. This running thing is so amazing! Good luck for you race.

Thank you, BaddieThePirate for your good wishes. I have a young friend fighting the Big C at the moment so I really want to do this, however slowly! Should get to 10k by early March at the latest so then there is two months to consolidate..we'll be fine ! 👍🙏

You’ll easily get to 10k by March if not before. Great goal to have. I ran it last year as a survivor and it was really emotional. 💛
