Week 8 - getting closer!

After having struggled with my inner gremlins in Week 7 (which actually took me two weeks!) I have started Week 8. Last night's run was my favourite one yet - I still can't quite believe that this is me running for 28 mins! I can see graduation on the horizon...... :-)

C25K is just the best isn't it? Hope you're all having good running weeks.

Slow and steady and you are so close now.. well done you!

The long runs are great.. where your newly found running legs help you find your own happy pace... Brilliant !
