W1R2 - Still settling in.

No real issues after W1R1 and none after the run today. I'm not breaking any records for speed or distance but I am enjoying the mental buzz I'm getting. One thing I had forgotten is how nice the autumn colours are in Crewe Queens Park at the moment.

Good work, Nobby! And going slow is crucial to building up stamina and avoiding injury, so you are doing the right thing by taking it slow and steady.

Outdoor running is so good for the soul, isn't it? I feel so much happier after my morning runs.

Keep up the very good work!

No records means you are doing it the right way.

The fact that you are appreciating your environment and the buzz of exercise means you are destined to become a run junkie in record time (whoops, there's your record..........can't win 'en all)

Enjoy the journey.....there is no rush.

Sounds glorious..well done you. Slow and steady is just fine😊

Settling in very nicely it seems. No need for speed; enjoy the buzz and the changing scene around you :)

Autumn running lovely...if you have the buzz now then that bodes well for the rest of the 9 weeks. Happy running
