W9R3 Well, I've got this far!

Ran the final w9r3 today - hurray! Very cold, but fortunately only a few light snow flurries, so Somehow it felt a lot better than w9r2 a couple of days ago, and without trying I was a little [not a lot] quicker as I had to take a detour to finish my warm-down walk before getting back home.

My aim is to consolidate this using all the advice given here [thanks icklegui ] then work towards 5k and a parkrun sometime.

Thanks! I'm quite surpriised at myself. Never been a runner and I was in my teens [long ago!] when I last seriously exercised - as a keen cyclist, so it's quite amazing that I'm actually enjoying this!

That's the best bit though. Having never been active myself to now enjoy running and mountain biking...it's bizarre, but good!

I hope you continue to enjoy it! πŸ‘πŸ˜
