Week 8 done, only just!

[BluebellRunner]

Had to take it really slow today, I've had an I intermittent shooting pain in my calf since Thursday due to overdoing my last run, it was going so well so I couldn't help it.

Had to argue myself into doing today's run as I ddint want to make things worse but so pleased it did. I slowed my pace right down, didn't realise how much it had improved over the last 8 weeks. Due to such a slow pace I was feeling fine at the end (and hardly sweaty) so I snook those last 2 minutes in Ooops!

Hoping week 9 I can speed things up again. Have realised that I need to go on a diet to try and reduce some of the stress on my legs

Come on week 9, bring it on!

Slow is good! How much weight are you going to lose then? Publish it here, then there's no wimping out!!!

Haha,that's a great idea. As much as I can to help out my legs the poor things. Lets go for a stone off before xmas

You saw it here folks - let's cheer Ms Bluebell on all the way to Christmas (and beyond!).

Sounds like graduation will be easy for you now, well done. Good luck on the weight loss. I have at least one and a half stone to lose.

Thanks runningknitter and you too, I'll need all the luck I can get

Well done on getting out there despite your niggly leg

Graduation here you come!

[BluebellRunner Graduate]

Thanks Atomic, weirdly my leg has been fine since my run, maybe it prefers running than walking
