W6 R2 🌧

I found this one tough today, it started lashing at the end of my final 10 mins so I cooled down a little and was thankful for the rain. Finished my run with the reddest face and currently waiting for my normal colour to return !

Rain is good.... and red is the in shade... very, very well done you! Slow and steady does it:)

We love red, especially shiny red. It's the best colour in the world

No rain today but it was lovely and cool, sign of things to come. By the end of my run I was sporting a lovely shade of vermillion with puce around the edges as per usual. Unfortunately I needed a bit of a push today and so wore an old running tee (for the event I'm training for) which was fluorescent orange! I felt like apologising to all the people who materialised from nowhere on my cool down walk 😅

Lol- I loved the rain- if it helps I look like a strawberry 🍓 every time I run!!! The old dears walking their dogs keep me going with their lovely smiles of admiration 😊

Oh I know that feeling!! Just about to set off on W6R1. Expecting to be glowing for some time...am hoping all that blood flowing can only improve my 50+ complexion!!

Week 6 is a tough one. I found run 2 the hardest so well done, you finished it! Keep going, you're almost two thirds of the way there! 😃

That's the spirit! 😊 Let us know how you get on with the next. I found it hard but not as tough as run 2 after I got into a rhythm but I did go extra slow!
