Week 8 and week 9

It has been a couple of weeks since I last posted on here, I thought WK8 was going to be very difficult, I did struggle a little bit on run 2, but overall it was quite good. I did change the time of my running to early in the mornings to beat the heat. I have now finished WK 9 and again I did struggle a little bit on the first 2 runs especially with my breathing and had to slow down a little bit, but on this last run everything went really great and when Laura said it was time to slow down I carried on for another five minutes. So I am very proud to say I have just asked for my graduation badge. And I am absolutely amazed that I have come this far, so to those of you who are just starting out on this journey you to CAN DO IT.
