Missing in Action

[trafford99]

....well not missing in action....more not been out....there I have said it out loud...to be fair I did have a blister the size of Texas followed by a pretty severe case of man flu for a week or so...still bloody excuses though...I got to and completed W2R1 before 'break' and tonight got my shoes back on and got out there....now I just need to know do I have to start all over again from W1R1 or, as i did tonight start W2R1. I don't want to 'graduate' under false pretenses. Hard tonight but got it done. Well done to all of you on whatever week you're in for sticking to it 🙂

Well done for getting back out there👍 That really can be the hardest part. If you managed today ok I'd move on to the next one, I'm no expert though🙄

Good luck 😀👍😀

Thanks 🙂 hope you're getting on well.

Thankyou👍 I'd say I'm doing .....so so🙄 W4r3 was supposed to be today but my legs are sooooo heavy I've decided to have an extra rest day😉 Like all the good people on here say... It's not a race🙂 Extra rest days seem to be my theme at the moment😊 Slow and steady is my mantra👍

If week 2 is do-able for you, then absolutely start there, no false pretences involved! Glad it went well tonight - you'll get back to it now

I wondered where you were. *le hug* welcome back

[trafford99 in reply to MrsPsycho]

Helllllooooo theshrinkingbride 🙂 how the devil are you...Yes I am returned and pounding the streets like a seasoned pro....W2R2 tomorrow and I cannot wait....to feel like I'm going to have a heart attack with every step, trying to work out how to breathe (been doing that for 46 years without a problem...go for a run and it all goes out the window 🙂) my legs not seeming to move when I lift my knees and tears streaming down my cheeks at the end while I curl up in a featal position LOL...hope all going well with you and your running 🙂

I hit the wall monday on W6R3 and spent the rest of the day feeling sorry for myself and disappointed but, hey-ho, just have to try again

[trafford99 in reply to MrsPsycho]

W6...that seems ages away and actually that makes you in my book a bloody legend so good on you for getting there... You'll be fine.... So close... you'll smash this ☺

[MrsPsycho Graduate in reply to trafford99]

And you can do it too (I won't scare you with what's in the coming weeks)

[trafford99 in reply to MrsPsycho]

I am scared by you saying that 😱just re-doing W2R1 again n the 90 second run had me crying for my Mum ☺hope your doing good

[MrsPsycho Graduate in reply to trafford99]

I'm doing fine. Last day of week 7 tomorrow (Tuesday) then I move onto week 8, I'm so close to graduation I can all but taste it - I'm also gearing up for a 5k run in aid of Welsh Children's Hospice

[trafford99 in reply to MrsPsycho]

Bloody brilliant 😀 what a great thing to do.... You'll be an expert by the time the 5k comes along....you Go girl 🙂

[GoogleMe Graduate]

I'd've counted last night as W2R2, never mind W2R1 again. If you complete a run, that's good enough!

[trafford99 in reply to GoogleMe]

Bloody right GoogleMe...now that is my kinda answer 🙂 hope all going well with you and your running

[poppypug Graduate]

Yes I agree if you've completed the runs , go on to the next , but if you've repeated one , theres no harm done

Hope youre back to feeling full strength very soon xxx

[trafford99 in reply to poppypug]
