After many weeks being stuck on 8 miles....I have finally hit 10 miles this morning through beautiful sunny hilly french forest. I wasnt coming home until I did it.
This has been my best running week hitting three records...fastest 5k in 27 mins...fastest mile 8-31 and now longest run 10 miles....chuffed with myself...time to look for race number 2?
What a running week you have had! Congratulations! Very well done to you!
🍾🥂🏅🏃🏻♀️🤸🏾♀️🏃🏻♀️🤸🏾♀️🏃🏻♀️🤸🏾♀️👏🏻👍🌟 💥⚡️🎉😊
Just brilliant! I have just looked at your first post, now I shall go and read about your first race. Enjoy the happy after glow of your impressive week! 😊🌸
Thank you for your kind words...feel invincible today
Invincilble! What a wonderful way to feel! Long may it continue!😊
Doesnt happen often but I agree...long may it last.
Congratulations! Sounds like a great run n much nicer than rainy England lol
Hi there...it was lovely.
We had storms Tuesday and lost a nights sleep to thunder and lightening....the trails were very muddy and washed away in places.
It is easier going out when it isnt pouring down...hope your running is going well?
I don’t mind the rain but could live without the mud lol, it’s too slippy. I’m suffering with some hip pain at the moment n noticed the running aggravates it so I’m on the IC n doing strengthening exercises in hopes it goes away. It’s very frustrating, I’m ready to increase to 6k n really looking forward to it 😤
Fantastic week all round Franglaise! I’m not surprised you’re chuffed to bits with yourself. Who knew that running could do this to us? So good! 👏👏👏
Oh, and if you haven’t already, don’t forget to claim your 10 mile badge on the marathon and race forum, and stare at it adoringly all day. 🏅 😍
Thank you...oops, claimed it on the wrong forum...thanks for putting me straight...hope your running is going well
Great stuff! It’s a great badge to have. 😀👍
My running is going really well thanks. Did the Great South Run last weekend and I have a HM entered for March. That and lots of VRB meet-ups at parkrun! 😀
Sorry to hear your on the ic...hopefully you will be better soon and smash 6k
My hubby has had a hip replacement 4 weeks ago...he cant wait to run again....nightmare patient keeping him still...running has preserved my sanity
Many congratulations on a great week! Yeah, it’s absolutely time to look for that race... maybe even 13.1! 😈
Very well done.
Congratulations on all those 3 record breaking runs, especially that 27 minutes 5K, I remember you struggling when doing the C25K program, now you can run a sub 30 minute 5k and also 10 miles, well done. 😊 🏃🏾
Thanks Al...it was a bit of,a surprise the sub 30....think I just wanted to get home quick
👍
Wow Franglaise ...those are excellent records you've smashed there!! And what a lovely place to hit your 10 miles?! I can just imagine you running and running like Forest Gump until it was done!! Brilliant!
Ha ha...not quite as speedy as forest but nothing was stopping me.
Good for you girl!!!
Shame that determination cant be bottled for when we need it most.
That's true...we just have to dig deep x
What a great week of running! Congrats 👏👏👏.
Well done, Franglaise! That’s amazing.
Congratulations x that's an awesome weeks work xxx
Bit of foam rolling tonight after a glass of wine
Woooh hooo! Franglaise! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 What a week!! Amazing achievements. Well done you!! 🤩❤️
Thank you.
Very well done on your 10 miles Franglaise - and your other achievements this week.👍🎉 You may want to take it easier next week - don't want to end up on the IC!😀
Your right...will clock up 30 miles this week so easy week next week
Speed. session in there somewhere
Really well done. What a week. Good luck with your next race. Amazing 5km time too.
Cheers Baddie...took me by surprise that 5k time
Big congratulations!!! Do you find 16km goes faster than 10 miles?!
Hope the wine went down well 😊
Im an old fashioned girl or maybe just old and prefer miles. Only managed one glass of wine...lightweight.
That is an amazing week Franglaise; pace, distance and stamina all headed in the right direction. A bit of basking in the sheer enjoyment of a fantastic week and some suitably wild celebration sounds about right 👏👏👏👏👏🥇🎉🥂
Wild celebration...thats been a while
🎉👏🏼🎉 Fantastic. And in French too - such a clever lass! 🤣🤣 Seriously, a huge achievement. Or, indeed, several of them. Enjoy the glow. 👍💕
Thank you Granspeed
Wowee, fantastic week! You must be absolutely thrilled as well you should be 🏃♀️👏🎉
I am rather...just realised I have run 26 miles this week....if I get up and do 4 miles tomorrow I can round up to 30....then im done!
Wow...26 miles is an impressive week already 😱😀
Félicitations ! That's quite a week of runs! May your running continue to be as excellent (minus the storms and mud) and your wine glass flowing this evening!👏🍷🏅
Merci..Managed one glass...some for tonight now
