Against all odds

[ChallengerGrandma]

I did not want to get out of bed this morning for my final week 9 run. I forced myself up and out still not believing I'd do 30 minutes. Not only 30 minutes but for the second time I kept on running to achieve 5 K (I'm slow!) my new challenge is to get my 5K time down from 40 minutes. Who would have thought I'd get this far?!?!?!

Brilliant well done! Grab your badge, you've earned it.

My 5k run is an out and back from my house, so I drive it everyday on my commute. I still drive past it now and can't quite believe I can run all that way and back.

Brilliant, congratulations! Be careful with extending to far too soon. Remember the 10% rule👍🏼🏃🏻‍♀️

I'm not expecting quick results. The prospect of 30 minutes running is such a major challenge in my head but hopefully I can step it up little by little.

[Millsie-J Graduate in reply to ChallengerGrandma]

If you have extended to 40 mins on last two runs you have extended by 25% this week already.😳

[ChallengerGrandma Graduate in reply to Millsie-J]

I'm not planning on extending my running time, just trying to improve my pace.
