In the bag, kicking and screaming ๐. CP2 disappeared off into the bluebell wood, while I stuck to my known out and back route. It's an undulating path, with quite a steep downhill section just before my halfway turn. And then I had to run up it again, what was I thinking! I managed to take this photo without actually stopping, so it's a bit out of focus.The bluebells are in full bloom now, the smell was amazing. After struggling back up the hill, there was a lovely long gradual downhill, which then leveled out and all was well until around the 5.5k mark. Everything then got really tough, and I began to seriously consider stopping at 6 or 6.5k. But, weirdly, I started to feel better again, and managed to finish the last k without too much distress, although I could tell that my face was now matching my very bright running top. Certainly made it easy for CP2 to find me in the queue at the cafรฉ. Mmm, granola bar๐

yaayyyy. well done!! love the action too
Fantastic! Oh, I remember my first 7k very well! It was so amazing when my watch told me that I reached 7k and I could stop. When I started that run I was so nervous that I told myself, ok, you can stop again at 6.5k, it's ok ... but everything went ok and I finished that run with 7k. I still know that I was crying during my cool down and was talking to myself "haha, I did it" all the way home. I think people who spotted me thought I was insane.
How lovely that you can join up for your runs and meet afterwards. Cuban very impressed with the photography while running grumpyoldgirl. And 7k is a major achievement. Well done. โ๏ธ๐ง๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ
