Wk8 run 2

I did it!! Only went and smashed the gremlins from the previous run. After struggling last run, I was not looking forward to today but I was determined to run for 28 mins. Not only did I manage it but have also learnt that I cannot run to music as I over pace and go too quick, audio books or nothing for me. I’ve also decided that my treat for completing C25K will be new trainers in 4 RUNS time 😁😁

Well done for not giving up or in you are on the right track to go all the way πŸ™ŒπŸ» Keep up the good work and if audio books are the way for you great you e found your strength through the tough bits and they will see you through to the finishing line πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ keep up the good work x

What a great idea. I never thought of audio books. Possibly not comedic ones though, running, cackling to myself may result in men in white coats appearing to carry me off :)
