8K and 60 mins - it’s a double whammy!!

So pleased I braved the wind and rain this morning to do this run! I’ve been basically following Ju-ju’s plan, tweaking the increase in time and distance each week - and this morning’s 60 minute run took me to just shy of 8K, so I pushed for another minute to achieve this double!!

It wasn’t the most pleasant of runs, but I felt fantastic when I arrived home, soaking and bedraggled!! I’m feeling much more confident now about the 10K race I’ve signed up for in May.

Happy running everyone!

🌧 💨 🏃‍♀️

Stellar effort Cazza. Running in bad weather adds that extra bit of enjoyment, once you have finished anyway! Like diving into a cold pool...you are ok after the shock of the first couple of seconds. 10k in May is easily within your grasp👊👊
