Wk6 R2 No more walking!

Prefer running in the morning and across fields (don't know how you treadmill folk do it) - you know bird song, frolicking rabbits big skies and the rest - but was determined to get this run completed today after two rest days dictated by work. So that meant pavement running along busy main road in the dark - whatever totally smashed it. Second lot of 10 minutes felt really comfy - could have carried on for miles (at least in my head). Beginning to figure it's all about pace - and seem to have found mine 😊 Feel like I'm showing off - but so so chuffed at progress I can't help it!

Looking forward to seeing what happens next.

Well.....well done you!

Take it steady... enjoy the longer runs and keep that feeling:)

Remember too.. some folk don't have the luxury of choice for their running locations... and a run.. is a run:)

Certainly not down playing anyone's running venue - but think I'd struggle without the outside distractions ☺

Sounds like a run that does! Good work! Running on the streets is ok but the lanes and trails, parks and woods are brill, if a tad muddy 👍

Nice you've found your happy pace and happy place too!

Not what you're looking for?
