Magic Wk3, Run 2 - just wow 😮

[Dottie_D]

I did my short run on Monday with a friend and then Fate played its hand and my new running club had an option to do 7.5k at steady pace, mixed ability tonight. I nervously joined this group hoping that the steady pace meant slow enough 😂. It was sunny, hot and with a cooling breeze. The pace was 12min miles and I can honestly say I enjoyed all of it, hills included. I feel I have definitely crossed a barrier point as I’m consistently feeling pleasure on my runs rather than only after them 😊😃🤪. Just my 5k run to do at the weekend then 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Happy running to all my VRBs 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

That's so cool, well done you x

Don't think I'm every likely to run that fast over 75m let alone 7.5km 😂 Breaking those barriers is such an awesome feeling Great job 👊

I thought that not so long ago. I find it so much easier running with a group than on my own like I did on the C25K. Don’t think I could have done the magic plan on my own 😂😂

Im thinking I may join the run club in the autumn to keep me going through the dark winter months. But generally I'm not a very sociable soul 😊

Wow, well done! That's really brilliant - if you have done 7.5K , then that must fill you with confidence for next week!

Thank you and yes my confidence is growing. I can’t believe in my head I’ve even been thinking “ONLY another 2.5k to get to 10K’ 😂😂😂😂

I don't run in a group right now, but couchpotato2 is my real life RB when we can make it work. It really helps the run to go faster, I'm glad it's working for you!
