I did my 5k as the last run.

Still inside on treadmill for this one (my short run is my transition to outside).

Treadmill is in the basement so it's nice and cool down there (although still hotter than it was). I did a fast (for me, snail runner) 5k in my first ever sub 45 mins and I felt like I could have done faster but didn't want to push it too much with the heat and the working towards 10k.

That puts me at 15k for the week for the first time ever I think. Pretty pleased with that. : )

7k this coming wek seems a bit scary but the gremlins are a bit too hot to bother me too much I think.

Great work. The gremlins will stand no chance with the way you are going. 7K will be fine.

Good stuff 👍💪🏃‍♀️😊

Also cooler here today with a good breeze so should be fine for my wk2 finale.

My gremlins are happily jumping around at the mo, so will need words with them before this evening! 😈🔨

Tell the gremlins they can have a nice glass of wine later if they let you run in peace : )

Yeah, 7K is a scary number but I believe we can do it.

Yay well done, week 2 in the bag. Was also worried about the 7k but you know what, it was ok, I did it, slow and steady got me to the end, you know you can do this!

Also a bit apprehensive about the 7k - more due to the erratic nature of my running abilities - one day seems easy, next day out of breath in the first 100m ......still, be positive - we can do it!!!!😃😃😃😃
