One run to go! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

R1 & 2 of w9 under the belt this week, chose a circuit route of the village thinking it would prob be about 5K, so giving me an idea of distance pace. After going out too fast on r3 of w8, changed from music to audio book. Nice steady pace the whole way for both, tried to speed up for the last minute on r1 as Jo suggested, nearly finished me off! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

so today on R2 stayed at the same steady pace and decided to continue to run during the cool down walk to as I could see my house & knew from r1 that it was just over 5K to finish, Eek, could I make it?

& I did, total running of 35mins, strava recorded 5K in 36.28mins!!

Only graduation run to go, whoop whoop πŸŽ‰πŸƒπŸŽ“πŸ’₯

Fantastic RRD. Foot and a toe on the podium, now where are those champagne glasses, and the ice?

Cracking stuff

Thank you, that's why I changed to audio book πŸ“š it definitely seemed to help the pace.

Great going 😊 Good luck for the big one! Well done for taking up Jo's invitation to sprint the last minute- I have to admit I politely declined!

There are quite a few running apps that will record your distance if you want them. Enjoy your run. πŸ‘πŸ’
