Week 4, Run 2 Completed 🥰🐻🐻🐻🐾💙💙🧑🏻‍🏭🌱🏃🏻‍♀️

[9weeks2Run]

Hi everyone,

Another morning run for me, not as early as the previous run, set my alarm for 6am turned it off and typed up my “To Do List”!!!

I decided not to wear my running shorts today as was going food shopping afterwards and I didn’t want to scare the other shoppers with my white legs!!

I headed up to Clapham Common, walking fast I can just about reach the common or the first running segment of C25K.

Another good run for me, I felt strong. Lots of runners out this morning feels so amazing being one of them. Finding the 5 minute segment very comfortable and feel my pace is picking up. I am already so excited about running again on Wednesday which will be my third run of week four. I can’t tell you how much joy I am feeling at the moment being back out there running.

After my run 🏃🏻‍♀️ I walked around the common to hit my 10k steps. So lovely to see the sunshine I went to Battersea Park in the afternoon, I have walked 30,000 steps today!!

Happy Running everyone x

Aww Sola once this is all over you should come up to London and we could go for a run in Battersea Park and along the river. Thank you so much and for all your support and kindness xxx

That would be amazing wouldn’t it? It’s years since I have been to London although we go to Epsom fairly regularly when we aren’t locked down xx

[Peter44 Graduate10]

Sounds another nice run, you'll be finishing before you know it, and nice to get those steps done in the sunny weather today 🌞 which helped for my girls, 2nd lockdown birthday!I bet battersea park was busy today, especialy with the restrictions lifted a little today.

[9weeks2Run Graduate10 in reply to Peter44]

Thank you Peter.

Hope they had a lovely birthday in the sunshine. My friends birthday was today as well!

Yes it was, the group workouts were back on, I was watching one in passing and the instructors called out and asked if I wanted to join in I politely declined 😆😅!!

[Peter44 Graduate10 in reply to 9weeks2Run]

Hope you told them that's for the oldies! 🤣

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10]

Wow Rebecca, over 25,000 steps yesterday and 30,000 today, amazing and congratulations, yesterday as you know I also did over 25,000 steps but today only around 800, tomorrow and the rest of the week it should be at least 10,000.You say you saw a lot of runners today, that is very good, not so good if a lot of runners pass you, however, I am sure you passed more runners than passed you, only the what we call gazelles would pass you, those are the sub 30/25 minute 5k runners.

[9weeks2Run Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Thank you Al,

Oh the 25k was on Saturday yesterday I did 10k was really shattered after my shift but after today’s run I felt better.

Well done on all your steps! I am really enjoy walking now very rarely use my car.

Oh I can only dream of sub 30/25 minutes 5k!!!

Take care

[Birdlady64 Graduate10]

That's an amazing step count! 😁👏👏👏💪💪💪Well done you are really getting your strength back and well and truly on the road to recovery.So lovely to know that you are enjoying your runs and already looking forward to the next one.

Brilliant stuff😁

[9weeks2Run Graduate10 in reply to Birdlady64]

Thank you ever so much Birdlady it feels so good. I still get the weird burning sensations but the fatigue is so much better, I am so thankful. Being able to do some running has really put a spring back in my step.

Take care and enjoy your next run x

[LottieMW Ambassador]

How fabulous! A lovely walk and run around the common...and that step number! 😄🙌🏼👍👏🏽

Even now I’m rubbish with my step count 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m so glad that you are feeling strong and more “you”... how lucky we are to have this bug called running 😂

Take care 🐌🐢🏃🏻‍♀️🥰
