8km in the bag & super proud!

Well I’ve done it! Much slower than usual but who cares as I was adding distance? Kept repeating to myself “another step”. I feel fine and very proud . Didn’t feel I need to stop and walk (actually I haven’t walked any runs since graduation so something else to be proud of!!)

Shame I got lost in potato fields 😆

Good luck this week everyone!! If I can do it with my spare tyres, wobbly belly and short legs then everyone can !

Well done it feels great doesn't it! I also did my first 8k this week. My knee didn't like it mind! But I managed to keep going, was with a group and didn't want to be that person that dropped out lol 😂

Well done! You are braver than me : I don’t run with other people

in reply to Snailspeed

I didn't for ages either but now I prefer it as I give up too easily when on my own. Lol 😂
