Goodbye week 7!

Back feeling much better today, I went into town and bought a new sports bra to replace the lost one, and toddled out into the rain today. I didn't use the podcast (having heard it twice) but rather put on my new "Zombies Run" app with a playlist and ran to what I hoped was time, turned out a couple of minutes over.

Ran, I say, and ran without any problems at all. Who would have thought that running 28 + minutes would be easier than puffing my way through 60 seconds? Everyone starting should know that week 1 is the toughest week, in my opinion.

The zombies, btw, didn't catch me (apparently I run faster than a slow zombie shamble, if only barely) and I picked up some important post-apocalyptic supplies in the rain soaked woods. :-)

Right? It's either in my office, having fallen out of the bag, or I was so upset not being able to finish my yoga session that I forgot it in the gym. I will find out tomorrow, I guess.

Well done! Can we have a review of the Zombie Run please?

Note to self; get spare bra 😁🏃‍♀️(no bra emoji apparently)

No bra emoji? What were they thinking?

I'll wait to give my review on the zombies app till I've tried it a bit more.

Yay well done! I think I need to look into this zombie run business, especially when Sarah keeps bailing on me!
