W3 R3 complete

[Belindauk]

Yippppe W3 R3 complete and as a non smoker too. Started off with 5. Minute warm but I think it froze as it felt like 10 minutes. Decided to run a different route today, passed a friends old house which she died of a brain tumor at the age of 44. As I ran past I said this is for you lisa. This time next weekend I will be doing a 10k walk/run for Marie curie cancer charity. I did get a little tired on the final 3 minute run but pushed through it and here I am W3 complete. Bring on W4. I sure my new running shoes are on steroids ha ha

Hooray! Great job on your run, and really kind of you to be running for charity!! I hope I will be one day too.

Also, very good that you gave up the cigs. How long has it been?

Oh, and very nice shoes!

Michael.

Good morning Michael, thank you. Well I guessed that if I signed up to do a charity event I would 1 be able to run in memory of my friend and dad and 2 work my c25k program in the 10k too and plus raise money for a good cause so everyone ones a winner well almost everyone

I have been given up for 3 days now. Haven't really noticed a difference except I can smell my perfume and sweat at all times ha ha oh and the money I have saved which will purchase me my new garmin 15 running watch that I would like

Sounds like you’re making great progress, Belinda. Good luck for the Marie Curie 10k. I will admit to being a bit jealous as you are speeding past me. I did W3 R2 and had to have a week off due to a painful foot. I’m sure it was because I have been wearing rubbish shoes. I have ordered a new pair and can’t wait until they arrive. I hope mine are on steroids too!

Thank you breezie, I do feel I have made progress but I would not of got this far with you guys and your great posts that keep me motivated. so I have a lot to thank you all for and the c25k program. Awww sorry to hear you have had foot problems. I did have a slight knee injury but seems to be fine at the moment.

They will be on steroids too because you will breeze through all the Weeks and runs ahead

Fab stuff Belinda ! I was wondering last night how you were getting on, think of all the money you will save that you can now spend on running gear and stuff !

Oooh, I love your shoooos , size 5 too, just my size

Keep going , you are doing great, and its so lovely that you are going to do a run in memory of your dad and friend . I did my Race For Life for my dad, I think he would've been telling me off though when he heard me swearing and cursing trying to run up a flippin' great hill, ha ha . He was such a gentleman, bless him

Right Missus, onwards to Week 4 ! xxx
