Well.. Week 8 Run 1 done. It was fine.

Changed my route.. didn't like it.. won't do that way again. Too much noise and early morning whizzing around-ness.

I prefer the calm of the lanes.. even if they are puddle-pocked and wet. At least it was sunny, after Monday's wetness. Looking forward to my run on Friday and hoping the legs hold out.. currently covering just over 4 and a half miles.. will I make the 5K in week 9... I hope so...! :)

Haha! Surely not miles - you must be flying!

It really doesn't matter if you don't make the 5k by the time you graduate - many of us take a while longer and some of us never get fast enough to do it in 30 mins.

Only 5 runs to graduation!
