Week 9 run 2...done

I think this run was a lot harder than i had imagined it would be because the first run went well and maybe I was a bit cocky in terms of believing it would be easy. It isn't but I am 1 run from graduating but that is not the goal. The next goal after graduating is doing a Park Run and seeing how I get on. I have used an app called track my run today so I know that I covered 5.32km from warm up walk, run and warm down walk. I suspect that my pace is a 35 minute 5k if I run all the way so it's not a bad thing.

Good luck to everyone else cos you can do it and beating the demons in your head telling you to stop is all the more worth it.

Your next run is your graduation run. Why not give do a parkrun then and graduate with hundreds of other runners, in style. Print your barcode off tonight :)

good luck whatever you decide and well done.

Ooh nearly there, well done. Sounds like you are running really well. Yes Parkrun is brilliant I would definately recommend registering and going along to one. It is there for everyone and I would have been happy with your pace when I first started. x 😊
