Week 8 - much better than last week!

Although I've only done the first run of week 8, it was better than all of last week's runs. Not sure why that is, but I'm not complaining, haha! Looking forward to my next two runs as they'll be in Sheffield as I'm visiting home - the hills will certainly give me more of a challenge than where I'm running now :P

Oh gosh, my niece lives on a very steep hill above Rivelin Valley. It's very very steep. Good luck.

The top of Rivelin Valley is basically where my house is! I'm definitely not going up/down into the valley though haha.

Definitely not! The run along the valley will be lovely, though.

I found exactly the same. Week 8 was my best week yet. Don 't know why, but like you I found the first run was better than the week 7 runs, and the rest of week 8 kept going in that direction. Hopefully the rest of yours will too :)
