Week 7 has begun!

[vlmiller1225]

Wow! Can’t believe I’m on the “last leg” of this program!!!!

Y’all asked for a pic of my new gear! So here it is!! (Some of it) and it did great on my run. Except I got a little hot at the end... but at the beginning I was quite chilly. So still learning about how to run in different weather!! 😂

I listened to my own music and found myself running too fast at the beginning. Adjusted my pace about halfway in and made it to the end of 25 mins!!

Now time for supper... as you all sleep!

And the leggings are purple. Can’t really tell. And my legs aren’t messed up. It’s the way I was standing 😂😂😂

Where did you get the purple leggings?? I want some

[vlmiller1225 Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

They are actually under armour. But I got them for about $20 on the sale rack at a local department store!

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to vlmiller1225]

Thanks

I have a light jacket I tie around myself when it gets too hot. Looks stupid but if I cared about that I wouldn't run.

You're looking good!

[vlmiller1225 Graduate in reply to ejvcruns]

Yes I definitely thought about that for the warm up walking!

Well done 25 mins sounds sooo long just starting week 5 tomorrow!! 😬

[vlmiller1225 Graduate in reply to Wantorun2013]

Oh you can do it!!!!! 25 mins still sounds so long to me. Can’t wrap my mind around the fact that I can actually do it!!

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate]

Looking really sassy!!

[vlmiller1225 Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Thank you! 😂

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate]

PS

Well done on the run

A seasoned runner told me to dress as if it were 10 to 15 degrees higher than what the temperature actually is.

Nice new kit - putting me in the mood to buy more (to stash away with all my other unworn stuff !!!!)

[vlmiller1225 Graduate in reply to Theziggy]

I truly needed some leggings as I have none!!! Once I got running I definitely could have made it in shorts. But the warm up I was pretty chilly. And my hands were cold so probably will do gloves next time

[Theziggy Graduate in reply to vlmiller1225]

Lidl usually have a winter running gear week at this time of year - their leggings are very good (just check their sizing it is a bit weird) they also do gloves, socks, tops etc.

[vlmiller1225 Graduate in reply to Theziggy]

I have no idea what this is! Is it only available in the UK? (I'm in the United States)

[Theziggy Graduate in reply to vlmiller1225]

Ah, please ignore my reply, I wasn't aware of your location

[Cornet-Carolyn Graduate]

Love the gear, yesterday was the first time i thought it was cold enough for a long sleeved top so I had a tee shirt on and a running top with a plan to take top off. I didn't as although I was warm it was nice and cosy!

[vlmiller1225 Graduate in reply to Cornet-Carolyn]

Love it!!!

[vlmiller1225 Graduate]

I also just realized that I slipped a “y’all” into my post!!! Sorry guys!! That’s my lingo 😬
