That was a shock! Changed my route to run on roads as getting too dark for lane and made a mistake and ended up running uphill at 15 mins. I thought the hill would never end but actually it was only about 3 mins! A bit hot and very red πŸ˜‚

Oh heavens, Carolyn! You certainly saw week 7 in with style! Rest up now and drink plenty of water.

I did R2 of week 7 today, and although it went well, am thinking of taking 2 days rest now. Mind you, I said that last time but only took one as I was itching to get out and stretch my legs again.

Well done! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Well done! That's a nice shade of pink you've got going on there!! You didn't go up Beeston Hump did you?! ;0)

The photo doesn't do the colour justice, definitely RED. I ran in Taverham but I live at the top of the hill!

πŸ˜€ I lived in Taverham before I moved to Beccles! If you're talking about Sandy Lane or St Edmunds Rise then I understand why you're that shade! πŸ‘
