Week 8,Run 3

I have a confession to make. I did back to back runs (but in my defence something last minute came up that I need to do tomorrow and the weather here isn't looking great for Saturday!) . I felt fine and Week 8 completed on a new route

For graduation week I plan to do a mix of my previous runs from the last 8 weeks and graduate in style!

Well.. Good job Laura isn't reading this website...what would she think!

It sounds like you've got it, though..well done!

mmmm...Laura has been known to pop in here you know, Hidden might get a telling off for not having a rest day 😉

[SlowWorm2016 Graduate]

Even if she isn't reading it, she'll know. Laura is omniscient and omnipresent, lol. Not long now til you graduate, well done for keeping going

Rest days are for sticking to when you are on the programme. The IC is not a good place to be 😱😱😱.

Mark, I know you are really keen to graduate but please make sure you do are not being over ambitious and then develop strain , injury etc😉Once you have graduated you can develop your own schedules, but slowly slowly 👍🏼

I am keen but really did have things today that cropped up last minute that I needed to get done and have done. The forecast has changed - tomorrow isn't going to be as bad as first thought here - the afternoon will be good,nice and sunny. But Sunday is now the day where it's going to properly pour down

Goodness! Back to back runs in week 8! How did you manage?? I have been a goodie goodie (he he) and had at least one rest day in between my runs Don't want to have any injuries before graduation. Well done though, see you at the finish!

[Hidden in reply to Flossie22]

Managed fine!! I still have the odd bit of worry with my chest "thing" that I was born with (apologies for the wording if anyone's offended!) The name for it I found at last : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pectu...

So my chest can raise more than slightly sometimes and it does cause some discomfort during my runs but not on a scale that I feel it's going to do me harm. Though would love to get it sorted at some stage if I thought it would help

Thinking Parkrun next weekend for the first time too but will see how the final week of the programme goes first
