RunLEJOG postcard and some gloomy woods

🏞 I almost forgot about my snazzy postcard! And second outing of my jazzy vest, and a run in super-gloomy looking forest, picture taking through the pocket window!

πŸ…Ran 5k this morning, but due to me taking it really, really slow (due to knee niggles) my usual 5k took 1 min longer than I have ever run! πŸ˜‚. Tadaaaah! Runkeeper then awards me with a personal best! I like Runkeeper!

πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈIt was also a run of the Magic Plan. It took me three runs to check off the first two, a 2.5k, a 4.5k and today a 5k. Sat or Sunday: 5.5k here I come!

Happy running everyone!

Yes, pictures are not perfect but they do have an eerie quality. I unbutton the holder, let it flap down and then take a pic! Rather fun than good quality! πŸ˜‚

Way back in the heady days of LeJog4. So I knew I was slow and my target from the start was to get to 333km, so I’m on track to reaching above my target but nowhere near being able to finish. But so much fun!!!

Congratulations on the 100 Mile postcard - I’m starting LeJoG 8 next week. Looking forward to it, not sure how far I’ll get but it looks fun πŸ—Ί

Oh well done! It’s lots of fun, and I have found there are plenty of other very tempting virtual runs as well! Good luck!

You're on the distance version now of MP? Well done! And le jog too, I'm impressed. After getting to 60 mins earlier this week I'm in a bit of a dither about what next, but I'll sort it. Enjoy😊

Yes, I seemed to have inadvertently extended my runs to 60min whilst trying to achieve my 5k! (I am ultra slow). So after getting some advice, the best thing to move forward was to do the distance version and ignore the time every run takes. And am enjoying being on a program again.

Nice one CBDB great progress πŸ€—
