Last run of week 8 done. Feels so good. Hoping the extra 2 minutes of week 9 wont feel too much.

Was cold but no wind so managed to avoid a repeat of my attractive corned beef legs! But still going to wander into the city and brave the Christmas shopping madness to look for some warm bottoms. Hoping sports store wont be too busy. Think I might be wrong :D

If I follow my usual schedule I'll be doing it at 5am ish on Thursday so will stick to my usual route. Hopeful that including warm up & cool down walks I should be covering 5k in week 9 :d

I know - I'm usually in work by 6.30 so I have to get up early to get run in. I know if I left it until I got home it wouldn't happen :(

I'm sure you will find the last wek absolutely fine. Why not look for some compression undies in Aldi - they make a great snug under layer to normal running clothes and were very cheap.

Oooh Aldi compression gear! I got the top and it was cheap as chips but the quality is fab. It's truly a thing of beauty. Pinky/purple mix and has a sexy contour pattern on the front so it makes you look like you have a fab figure. It's long so it goes past your lower back but doesn't roll up despite being snug. It has a lovely waistand and snug wrists. Mine has a turtle neck to it. If the bottoms are the same quality then they'll be the bees knees.

They are great - and have the added bonus of stopping everything from wobbling about!
