Do you think it is because the weather is cooler? Anyways went out again this morning, not my normal route, only had 40 minutes so keeping it tight, 5 minute warm up walk, 30 minutes running, 5 minutes cool down walk:-)

ran out of route! Had to turn around and run back, having done the allotment rounds, turned through the woods and startled a couple of deer!

So all in all this means I am getting faster too yay fitter, faster great stuff :-)

I ran out of route once during week 6 and had to run several widths of the rugby field rather than the usual length of the field because I could see I needed a longer distance! I guess it means your are either quicker or taking longer strides. Either way you are improving!

WELL DONE YOU!

Thank you Beek, I am feeling really good at the moment, and hopefully it is heartening for other people too as it isn't so long ago that a whole minute was a feat and 5K may as well have been a marathon :-)

It is amazing how we all manage to gradually improve. I would not have thought I could ever run for 28 minutes but I can now!

Good luck and happy running!
