W8 in the bag!

[KarinB]

W8 completed this morning in lovely autumn sunshine with a slight breeze which kept me cool enough, had a bit of a hamstring twinge this week so I gave myself three days of rest between R2 and today. I'm going to treat myself to a proper water bottle tomorrow as a reward for getting this far. What can I say, I'm fitter -don't get so out of breath, trimmer- 7cm off my waist and I still can't believe that it is really me out there running. What's not to love about C25K

Hey well done you!

Getting this far is great news and it sounds like it's doing you lots of good.

Best of luck with week 9, and watch that hamstring - I crocked mine on W9R1 last Monday and haven't been able to run since!

Take it easy, only 3 more till shiny badge time

Very sensible to take the extra rest. Nearly there now ... just keep doing what you're doing. I wish I'd taken measurements at the beginning - I took some this week and will do it again in 6 months. Also got my son to take photos of me in my underwear - not a pretty sight - just to check the muffin top and cellulite in 6 months as well!

Great stuff! Just 3 runs left now and we have done it. There was a nice breeze when I ran yesterday and it definitely helps. I bought myself a long sleeved running top a couple of weeks ago but still haven't worn it yet!

Brilliant start to the day. Trimmer too fantastic. Well done

Well done. I finished week 8 too this morning and am having 2 days off and will start week 9 on Monday. See you on the finish line x
