Yay! And just a squeak more than 5K :O I really didn't expect that, I felt really slow for the last (windy) 10 minutes. A real struggle but I beat that pesky wind! :D

Excellent news! Have a good one :)

in reply toroseabi

I'll try! Hoping it won't be too windy, as it was when I did R1 on Friday and I struggled with breathing a bit. That'll be something to work on after graduation!

Me too for sure! I really was struggling with breathing today, and I had to force myself to do the "brisk"* walking straight away afterwards - after I finished W9 R2 I did stop for a bit and do that bending over clutching the knees pose :) Perhaps I've been pushing it a bit too much...

*my "brisk walking" is never all that brisk after the run!

hope it goes well Ali :D just the 2 runs left now :D

What pesky wind? Pah! Snubs nose at the elements

Well done Rose!! You did it. How good does that feel. I expect you're on top of the world and won't come back to earth. While you're up there have a good think about stage 2.

Laura's C25k+ podcasts would be a good new tool for you to play with

Have fun!
