Soooo.....

I've only gone and done it! 25 mins without one break, in pouring rain then torrential hail. with no jacket!! Only worry is I have been very snack-y since then.... :-)

Onwards to week 7.......

Whoa..go you! In the rain? In the hail? Fantastic. Well done! Now you've got my favourite week ahead of you. 25 minute runs (that you've already nailed). Good luck and enjoy :)

Thank you for noticing it's absence, and yes, I have requested it, but I am trying to be patient. I know, it will look lovely and I'm really excited to receive it, but I think the admin staff are rather busy making a new batch. X

Just imagine it hanging up there for now Millsie-J 😊🏅🌹

Well done on nailing that final week 6 run! It is the hardest week so hats off to you. For completing it in terrible weather too! Respect!!!!

I'd step away from the snacks though unless they are good uns. Make your own healthy ones and nibble away.

I think you will find your next run somewhat easier, and you might feel like you're batting downhill. Carry on going steady though! Take care at this point as you're on the home strait!
