W6R2 done. My friend who used to run a lot came with me and it was very enjoyable. Although she said I run like a prancing pony? 😊

I remember when Pheobe and Rachel began running together in Friends - now that was good fun. It is good to have someone to run with - helps with motivation - trying to imagine how someone runs like a prancing pony!! 8-)

I will answer to Tigger πŸ˜‚

All that wasted upward energy! Just think how much faster I could be if I projected it forward......ha!

I tried to follow Laura's advice about smoothing out my run in the early weeks. - this led to me discovering muscles that I didn't know I had and aches and pains in places that had never hurt before!! πŸ˜‚

thats funny because somebody refers to me as a dancing fairy, never quite sure if its meant as a compliment or insult, but its better than stomping rhino! :)

Dancing fairy sounds like a nice running style. It sounds like it wouldn’t hurt as much!
