W3 done!

5 Replies

Whew! Ran this morning round the park which I found a bit harder than the treadmill but so much more enjoyable. Took everyone's advice and slowed down after stupidly running the first 90 seconds up the biggest incline in the park. I won't make that mistake again! Thank you for all your advice and encouragement - 2 days off before tackling W4. Can't wait!!!

Running outside definitely lifts the spirits, doesn't it? Well done on nailing W3. I've just started W4 and found that slowing down is the key to those longer runs!

definitely prefer outside as well, glad you are enjoying it!

The weather certainly helped; not sure how I'll feel about running in the rain. At least I'm thinking ahead!

Running outside is definitely better, even for the mood! Run slowly! It's very important... And Enjoy your 4w! 🙂👍👏🏻
