Bye bye week 8!

9 Replies

Well that's another running week under my belt. 2,2 miles again today after work. All day I was looking forward to my run and actually pleased it was drizzly as its cooler. I think I'm an addict.,,

On to week 9 Thursday! Can hardly believe it. For all you on the journey believe in the programme and trust Laura. She is always right. We can do this.

Oh wow you are so nearly there ! I've only done one run away from home months ago when I was at my parents. I think I was on week one the first time round . Good for you planning a route in new place!

Excellent we can cheer each other on across the pond! Though I think mine is "easier" with just 3 X 30 mins runs to go. Haven't you got longer ones ??

six of one really - to finish 'my' version I just have (ha ha - 'just have' - how casual we become about something that was 'impossible' not all that long ago :) ) One thirty minute run and one thirty five minute run left, that will complete the '8 weeks' part on that front. I will - of course - be doing the extra run though before I claim to be a 'Graduate among my favorite Graduates' ;)
