I'm a bit of an Excel fan .. so all my distances, duration, average pace, calories, average heartbeat & peak heartbeat have been recorded after each of my 24 runs so far .. and just for interest I have run 65.75 miles & burned 7984 calories !!

Bring on WEEK 9 !!!!

Good to see/hear that you found your motivation again. I'm just one run behind you and won't start on Wk 9 until Tuesday - all being well.

Love the stats, wish I'd noted mine down too although I don't think I've run as many miles as you have.

Those lifetime stats are the best ones. Other runs will be faster, slower, longer, shorter but the lifetime one encompasses all your hard work. Well done.

Ha ha I know Rob.. so even when you are not actually out running you can gaze proudly at and analyse your running stats... then go to bed and dream about running. I think a lot of us are the same.Lol x

Graduation week for you next then... Good luck😊

Keep on running, RobD ! I think we were on track to graduate in the same week but life and other stuff got in my way and tomorrow I will be doing wk8r2 then not running again til Tuesday.

So, good luck as you sprint down the home straight. I'll be a bit behind you but cheering you on :)

Wow, you're fast! I only have 45 miles although haven't finished week 8 - still 2 runs to go. But I burned 10,000+ calories because I weigh more than you. 😀 Not something to be proud of though.

I think some of it is down to the fact I am a fast walker during my walk break between running periods :) I would imagine you are losing the pounds too though eh ? Well done for your progress so far :)

Thanks, I am slow walker and did my walk intervals in very relaxing pace. But still, you are fast.

As for losing weight, I haven't actually noticed any movements on the scales (even gained a bit), but everyone I meet compliments me telling me that I've lost a lot. I do feel slimmer as well, my belt went to the last hole. But no love from scales just yet.

Slower you lose it, longer it stays off :)

Really hope you're right. I was in this originally for weight loss only, but somehow this became much much more.

Not what you're looking for?
