I finished week 4 on the Magic Plan this morning. Feeling pleased that 10k was really within reach but when I ticked the run off on the chart I realised that I wasn’t almost at the end, I was in fact only half way through! A moment’s shock, disappointment and a fleeting ‘oh glory, how will I get through this’ and then back to reality. I can do this - I am doing this! So get on with it OGR! And on a glorious morning like this, how can I not enjoy it? But it’s warm out there VRBs, even at 6.30, so if you’re going out later dress appropriately! Happy running!
Down to earth with a bump : I finished week... - Bridge to 10K
Down to earth with a bump
Half way finished !! not half way through. Well done😎
Happy running to you on this lovely morning. Half way there! Nice going. Enjoy the journey 🌸😊🌸
A lovely pic Oldgirl, and you are more than halfway through in distance; the repeats will make you stronger and consolidate what you’ve achieved . I know you’ll get to 10k before I return to 5k! Whoop whoop.
Well done OGR. 👍 Of course you can do it! I've also caught the 6 am running bug. It is magical being out there with the sun coming up and spring in the air.
What a beautiful photo. Of course you can do it and will do it 💪🙂 Well done on running at 630!
You are doing it just right for you. 👍🎉 Aren’t these Spring mornings glorious? I’m jealous of all of you who can get out there in the early hours at the moment. Such a lovely feel to the air.... Happy running. 💕🏃🏼♀️🐢
That's the way, always a run at a time and a week at a time. It's also good to look back at times like these. Look how far you've come, how many miles you have covered and know the journey you're on is just that. Keep on keeping on because as long as you're able to do it then your time will come.
What a beautiful morning for a run. Just sing ' ooooh your half way there' . Have a nice day🌞🌞🏃♀️🏃♀️
You’ve got further than we did so well done, what a beautiful photo to start the Easter weekend
These spring mornings are glorious and not many people is definitely a bonus!👍
I see you got that sunrise on the prom again - also that others are out as early as you!
Hi
Well done. What’s the magic plan and where do I find it?
What a lovely photo OGR! Your reward for being out before the “throngs” of people, all socially distancing. 🏃♀️
You know full well you’re going to make it to 10k soon don’t you? Imagine the pride you’ll feel. That feeling will see you through the last few weeks of the Magic Plan. And know what? There will be one heck of a virtual party laid on for you. Just remember to invite me - I’ll bring some 🥂 and 🍰
Go OGR! Run and stay safe! 👍😀👏💪⭐️
I am in exactly the same place as you - a sixty min graduate now up to week 4 on the Km plan. Yesterday the hubby and I walked a 10 k route for when the time comes . Seems so long when you walk it. In the mean time just another 8k next week ha ha. We can do this thanks to this brilliant forum- it’s the only social platform I can bear to look at these days as it’s full of hope and things we can control x Take Care x
Of course all the runs you do between now and 10k will collectively be oodles better for you than that final cathartic 10k effort. So enjoy every one of them ...they are all triumphs 🙂
Keep going OGR, I’m a week behind you. Even at this early stage I can see and feel the improvement in my fitness and I’m looking forward to what it will be like by the end of the plan. Ran yesterday about 17:45 when the temperature was about 23C, wasn’t so bad 🥵
You're doing so well. That 10km is definitely in sight, keep going. Remember to enjoy the journey as well as the achievement.
