"Officially a runner" W6R3

Felt really tired whilst running today. Usually use a Garmin watch but forgot to charge it so used Strava app on phone, apparently ran a whole minute per km faster... I think it was faster but not by that much! We'll soon see on W7R1 when I have charged my Garmin.

Laura said I am "officially a runner" but I won't really feel like one until I've done week 9

CookieMonster - you are a runner 'cos Laura (she who must be obeyed) says you are! Well done, and keep up the sure and steady pace into week 7 - you're two thirds of the way through the programme now .... Yay!!!!!! :)
