1st 8k and I haven’t collapsed!

I was really nervous setting out today but determined to hit that 8k. I started the Magic Plan at the beginning of September then had to stop due to hip tendinitis. Started back too soon, pain returned so had to stop again 😳 But happy to say the last 2 weeks have been pain free 😁🤞

So I’m feeling back on track with W4 complete, and maybe, just maybe, the gift of 10K for Christmas.? That would be so awesome 🤩

Happy running to all you amazing runners out there 🏃‍♂️ 🏃🏻‍♀️ 🏃 Enjoy!!

That’s wonderful 58soon, well done and how exciting to be back from injury back on your plan and all good. I guess we need to respect those feelings of nervousness, taking good care not to do too much too soon but if all goes well power ahead, so fingers crossed for that 10k Christmas 🎄🤗

Yes, nearly there, and the 10K vitality next year will keep me going 😀

Ooo yes , you’ll have done a fair few 10ks by then ( I’ve done very nearly 10k a few times since my first one) and the end of May next year our 10k will feel amazing 🤩 🏅

Oh that's a great 8k 58soon that 10k is there you can almost touch it 👍👍
