Well i started week 8 tonight and really thought it was all going to be over after 10 mins how is it when your running, a bit of a breeze can feel like a force 10 gale?! Anyway i looped back and with the wind behind me im happy to say my run went so much better so much so that i felt i could have ran (not danced) all night!

Are you sure it wasn't a force 10 gale?? It's been pretty flippin' windy! Always much better with a tail wind ;)

Nice one jules.

You didn't mention them so can we assume the shins are better?

Well done you! I feel just like you tonight as I did WK 8 too tonight after a pretty rotten run on Saturday. I felt I could have done another couple of minutes. Great feeling isn't it. Good luck with your other runs. We're nearly there. Can't wait to see that Graduate badge.

Totally know what you mean. It doesn't take much to put me off my stride! Windy here tonight but warm, and I picked a sheltered run. Glad you felt like dancing, sound like a great run.
