W7 R2

Another one done and dusted. Ditched Laura and the podcast for my own music and tracked my route, pace etc on Fitbit.

Couple of tech problem to sort on route, first track played on repeat, then at about 2k I accidentally paused my tracker. Luckily I noticed after about 5 minutes and ran until it registered 25 minutes, running approximately 30 in total. Me, running and technology don't mix well.

So far, apart from W1, W7 has been my least favourite. This one was mixed, at times I felt like I was really running, not just plodding and at other times was a real struggle to keep going.

One thing I do know, there will be another brilliant, satisfying run soon, maybe that will be Monday or perhaps it will be graduation in a couple of weeks time. πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘ŸπŸ‘Ÿ
