What am I supposed to can't run that's tomorrow so I went to suss out a running route for a future saturday. So me Laura, Julie and my pasty white legs set off to walk a double session of week 9. So the aim was to walk for 80 minutes and see how for that get me well I actually walked for just under 85 minutes and covered 8.28 km. I am going to stick with just running round the village during the week but might try this one at the weekends.

Walking is a great complement to running and you can do it any time, anywhere. New run routes are very exciting *only other runners understand this. To everyone else it's an absolute mystery why 😂 *

I suspect people just think we're weird because why else would you walk in a circle and not actually go anywhere

Well, that makes me feel better! I've been walking in my flappy flip flops, airing my scabby heels since graduation! Did an hour and ten minutes today but it was only 5k (just under actually). I obviously walk at a very leisurely pace! Can't wait to get my running shoes on again :( So you did a double session with Julie? There's dedication for you :)

More than you know having said that it was odd walking in leisure shorts as I normally run in Ron Hills so I don't frighten the wildlife
