Week 4 run 1 - phew!

Just finished the run. Oh boy - very different from week 3.

Must admit that for the last 5 minute run I had to drop the treadmill incline from 1 to zero and take off 0.2 kph from the speed. And that last minute!! How long is that??

I'm even redder and soggier than usual but ...

I did it!

Roll on Saturday (I think..)

Well done! I just did week 4, run 1 yesterday and it certainly felt like a step up! I am enjoying it so much though, didn't expect to!

Well done with the first run of W4. You are progressing so well and getting to feel like a runner now. Good luck with the second run of the week.. Best wishes.

Well done John. I'm at the same stage myself did w4r1 yesterday and yes a little tougher but I have to say I felt great after it, even Laura's music sounded better.. Keep up the good work..

Thanks everyone - as I'm getting closer to Saturday's run I'm kind of looking forward to it. Bit weird but this is certainly getting addictive.

Good luck with R2 Daftpaddy and Purplesparkle.
