W5 Completed - 20 mins!!

[Sadeskin]

OK so I was a little apprehensive about the 20 min run, but I did it. A change of route was great, I chose a flatter road and actually had somewhere to put my car keys thanks to a new top (issues!) Hoping I can do it again next week. Really want to keep this going .. the first 5 mins were probably the hardest, mentally and I was tired on my feet but just kept going. Hooray

Yay! Well done Sadie! That is a great achievement. I am just two runs behind you, so it gives me heart to hear your report of it. You star! 😘

Thank you so much, well done to you too. Your words will keep me going! X

Congratulations on cracking the 20 min mark! I've changed my routes a few times too and it makes a difference. Especially finding a flatter route like you say. I went out of my way to find a flat route and it helped a lot. You can do this you just have to believe it!

[Sadeskin Graduate in reply to Decker]

Thanks Decker that helps, I will def stick to the flatter areas for now (with less roads to cross too!)

Well done! That’s brilliant and I bet you are happy with yourself. I completed run 3 this morning. I know how you feel about the first five minutes. I’m like that with every run. When I heard the announcement to say five minutes remaining I did think to myself I could do more. I’m tempted to redo the run next week.

[Sadeskin Graduate in reply to Hidden]

I thought about re-doing it, I think I’ll give W6R1 a go and see how I am with it. I also have a heavy cold so had a few things against me this morning. I won’t worry about repeating though, that’s sensible right? Well done to you - keep me updated 👍🏻

[Hidden in reply to Sadeskin]

W6R1 is a nice workout because it’s 5/8/5 Run with breaks in between. I often redo W1R1 to see if I can improve on my pace. This run is also good if you feel under the weather.

[Sadeskin Graduate in reply to Hidden]

That’s really helpful, thanks!

[Hidden in reply to Sadeskin]

You’re welcome.

Well done its a nice run to have under your belt. Over half way to the podium....

[Sadeskin Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Ooh I’d not realised that yet! Thanks
