Weekly run chat 12th to the 18th of June

[ju-ju-]

Hi everybody,

Please feel free to share your runs here and chat about how it's all going,

Sometimes we don't feel like putting a whole post up but just want to share something small, so this is a great place for doing that during the week.

If youre a lurker it is a great place to say a little hi without the pressure of a full post.

Wishing you all a happy and healthy week,

Juju, RFC and Pops

Had to take a break for a week. I had just finished week 7 when I was struck down with man flu 😷 And also strained a muscle in my lower back. I went for the first run of week 8 on Thursday thinking I was ok. I was sore for 4 days afterwards. I'm feeling good again today although my voice has still not come back 100%. I am planning on doing week 8 run 2 this evening. Wish me luck.

I'm feeling good today after yesterday's run. But tonight I'm doing the Agility badge with my Brownies, and can't help feeling I will have to lead by example. Oh dear! On the bright side, my main actual involvement should just be the warm up and cool down, and a three-minute aerobic exercise sequence... I can probably manage that...

[Jcab Graduate in reply to RainbowC]

Of course you can. 😊

[ju-ju- Graduate in reply to RainbowC]

I hope it went well?

[RainbowC Graduate in reply to ju-ju-]

It did, thanks 😊 Lots of fun with the agility bit, then a campfire with marshmallows. And it didn't rain, and wasn't too hot. Who could ask for a better evening?

This week I'm away for work again, this time in South West of England. Got up early before my transport came to complete W3R2 on local park, feeling pleased 😀 Happy running everyone!

First run in the real world this week and with company, 5.2km in 34 mins or so. It made a nice change from bashing the mill and was only the second time I'd covered 5K in a session

Just finished W7R1 and feel really good, went extra slow as I had the long run (for me) Sunday mentioned above. I actually got to the end feeling really good and that I could have kept on to half an hour, definitely a landmark week.

[MrsQ Graduate in reply to Cliff_H]

Great work- I got to around week 6/7 and just felt like it clicked and that on some runs you could have done a bit more. Hope this feeling continues for you too!

[Cliff_H Graduate in reply to Cliff_H]

W7R2 done, felt really good and managed to run a little quicker for the last 8 minutes, never thought I'd be able to run for 25 mins let alone run for 25 mins and feel like I still had some time left in my legs

Just back from holiday in Sardinia and Corsica - did several tourist runs there. Beautiful beachfront runs - under two months from graduation and there I am running on my hols coz I didn't want to miss out! How times change! 😆

Can I just say how much I don't want to go running tonight, given how warm it is today! I will go anyway (I think!), but am not looking forward to 22 mins. On the bright side, I can't go til at least 9pm due to Gymnast Daughter needing the maternal taxi service, so that helps...
