Nearly there!! I did w8r1 yesterday. I usually run outside but when i got to the gym the spinning class was cancelled. Now normally I would happily go back home but I thought 'get on that treadmill'! I was not fast but I was pleased that first 28 minutes are under the belt. It's a super feeling knowing that you're in touching distance of graduation isn't it? X

well done! I did this, well nearly, on Sunday at 7.15am and it was 26 degrees. I forgot to take my water with me and my mouth got so dry it was hard to breath properly, and then I got a stitch, so only managed about 23 mins. I felt a bit fed up as I managed 28 mins the run before ok. My husband did point out that when I started, I found a minute of running almost impossible so I should be pleased with what I have achieved so far. My dilemma now is whether to see how I get on with run 3 and then carry on to week 9 or whether I need to repeat run 2 to do the full 28 mins. My big problem is that I live in Spain and it is now just hot all the time. I am looking forward to running in the UK when I go on holiday later in the week. Any suggestions from people who have had a similar experience at this stage? x
