Week 8 completed!

I have just completed my 3rd run of week 8 and found it much better than my last run. The weather wasn't great.. strong cross winds from the sea again and got ear ache but at least it wasn't raining. The legs were heavy for the first five minutes..it probably doesn't help that there is an incline at the beginning of my run but after getting to the halfway mark of 14 minutes I was really starting to enjoy it. I logged 3.4 km in 28 minutes. I can't believe I'm on week 9 next run. I'm loving c25k!

Well done debze ! :)

I think that's a great time you completed that run in. Nice one. I also went out today (on my penultimate C25K run) and it was raining quite hard here with a good bit of wind too, but that didn't get in my way! ;)

All the very best with starting your last week! :) x

Very well done... a lovely run... I can image you racing across the land, in front of a storm tossed sea, buffeted by the wind.. ( You need a buff or a hat to keep your ears warm!) :)

Week 9... so close now.... :)
