So close now

β€’5 Replies

I just ran W9R2 and improved on my previous distance for 30 minutes. I usually fit my runs in during the evening after work so it was great to run in the daylight this morning and I felt full of energy. The 5km is in sight and whether I manage to do it on my next run or subsequent runs I don't mind because now I know I can do it. What a great programme, and a great community, I have taken just over double the 9 weeks to complete it, but I'm nearly there and it feels great.
