First 60 mins !!

Feeling chuffed. 😅 wasn’t intended, just kept going. Am on week 6 of magic plan though my shorter runs have been a bit longer than the plan says - but I set out to do 35 min run with the Nike headspace podcast (soothing music and love yourself’ type commentary without using those words !!) and I decided to love myself a little more and get this week’s long run out of the way now so I can take it easy on Tuesday 😂.

So I’ll continue with the plan - means I can go back to 55 mins next week if I want - and gradually shift to the distance one.

And my shoes have been great (3rd or 4th time running in them now and no repeat of the first run’s slight discomfort).

Hurrah ! Sticky toffee pudding here I come !

Brilliant effort, I love your tracks, reminds me of my running routes last year. Claim your 60min badge and enjoy the sticky toffee pudding. Happy running 🤗

Thankyou !! Ah yes today I set out to deliberately draw radial lines from a central point in the park - I needed some variety !! - but then as time went on I tried to avoid too many ups and downs and did a few loops and things instead (92 metre elevation gain !). Looks a bit like a child’s drawing of Rudolph the reindeer pulling a sleigh !

Lovely Rudolph and great elevation gain, well done.

Excellent run! An hour on your feet is terrific! Well done 😊

Yey ! I even got to enjoy it, lovely day here and watch others enjoy themselves - organised kids footy tournament happening in the park, a cricket match, a birthday party. All happening today !

I feel dizzy just looking at your route!! Well done on reaching 1 hour running. At least one sticky pud’s worth of calories to replace!!🙂

Running round the perimeter just got too boring and I realised I was just like a hamster. Had to shake it up a bit !!
