Final stretch

Week 9 Run 1 today, in the snow! Felt good and amazed I could run for 30 mins without stopping. Not too tired either, although I confess I was pleased when the 30 mins was up πŸ˜„ It’s taken me longer than 9 weeks to get here... but can’t believe I’ve nearly finished the course.

Yay! That is quite the achievement, well done Ruth. Once you have run for 30 mins a few times it will become quite the norm. πŸ˜€πŸ‘πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Well done on getting up to week 9. Only a couple more runs to graduation. Don’t be tempted to head off too fast - keep heading for the podium.
