W6 Completed :)

Managed to do my final run of week 6 this morning (Huzzah!), and it's lovely to be back running again. I'm even finding I'm actually enjoying the longer runs, especially now I've got my pacing back on track - not sure whether it was because I'd taken a week break, was running in a completely different place (having moved back home for the Summer) or because I'd gone back to interval running, but found the first two runs of this week challenging, though this third run was definitely better :) I've also been struggling to motivate myself lately (something I'd been worried about because I'd stopped for a week), but found that once I'd actually put my running stuff on I was able to just get on with it, and I actually enjoyed the run in the end :) I'm hoping that getting back into the habit of posting in here after every run will help too. Definitely different running around a village rather than a city though; I very rarely saw people I knew before, now I seem to see someone I know every 5 minutes xD Ah, the joys of living in the back of beyond!

Hope everyone's having a good weekend :)

Well done you, seems like you have your mojo back. I guess it must be a relief to be free of exams and now you can concentrate on the running. Yes do keep posting here- I'm sure it helps to receive encouragement and get told off if you are being a wuss :

Definitely a relief to be post-exams, even more of a relief to have passed said exams, so I can actually enjoy the summer and enjoy the runs more :) It definitely helps, yes :P Sometimes need the telling off, as well as the encouragement ^-^
