Week 8 Run 1 done!

[revruns]

Phew! In week 6 I was enjoying running, but the last 2 or 3 runs have been really tough. It's definitely a case of needing mind over matter though, as physically the running is easier than it was in earlier weeks. But, I keep breathing and keep going. Feeling good now though. Ever onwards!

Hi well done - you have only 5 more runs before becoming a graduate - nearly there! I felt the same at times and really struggled esp in weeks 7 and 8. Like you I pushed on and to my total surprise I am doing my W9R3 tomorrow and can't wait! I have to say all the advice tips and reminders posted here are so true and proven right. The crucial change I made was I slowed down a little and ran 30 min yesterday with no breaks and even ran for an extra one for luck at the end! I got a real buzz during the first few weeks which kinda disappeared for a while but the buzz is def back and i'm ready for more! Good luck for your last few runs ! Onwards and upwards!
