Week 9

I started week 9 run 1 yesterday morning by entering into my 5th 5k Parkrun. What a morning! The weather was fab and I also celebrated by doing the run with my brother and 2 sisters. They had never done a Parkrun before and they are now hooked. I'm the guy in the green/black top by the way. I also set a new PB of 32:52. So just 2 more runs to go. Run 2 will be tomorrow evening. I'll hopefully be a graduate by Wednesday or Thursday. I'll report back then.

Congrats on the PB fella, your smashing it!

I'm starting W9 tomorrow and I'm hoping the heat doesn't kill me off, but all being well I'll see you at the graduates table on Friday.

Thank you. I got through it and enjoyed it. But I too find it tough. It will take a few weeks before I get comfortable with running for 30 mins. Best of luck to you and enjoy.
