Week 5 Run 1 done....

β€’8 Replies

Afternoon all.

Well that's Week 5 Run 1 done and under my belt. Couldn't seem to find my flow this morning if I can call it that but when I do I seem to jog more effortlessly.

However, it's done and that's the main thing. The last 5 minute was abit challenging but then that's where the mental thoughts come in and keep you going.

I'm here sitting down over the playing field where I run and just looking at it. Not even a month ago I found it extreme difficult to even run 60 seconds and now I'm at 5 minutes x 3. Feeling proud of myself and looking forward to the next run on Saturday. Full 8 minutes. Hmmmm..... I can do this.

Have a lovely day all.x

Great work, Donna! I remember you as a week one-r, and I am so glad to see you at week 5! Commitment! And you are doing rather well. πŸ˜€ 8 mins? Yeah, you can do it.

And wearing earrings whilst running?! You are so glam, and put me to shame!

Keep up the good work. Many, many more rewards to come. Happy running. πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ‘πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ
