Week 9 run 3

So, for me, the end is in sight. I did week 9 run 2 last night, which means graduation run is due tomorrow or Monday. We have a litter of puppies due any minute so that will dictate when the final run will be. Anyway, I have mixed feelings about the final run. Of course I want to finish what I’ve started and reach my goal. However, I don’t want it to end. I’ve really enjoyed the process, especially seeing my progress and making new achievements each week. I’m going to really miss having something to feel proud of. Definitely one of the best things I’ve ever done.

Thank you Bluebirdrunner - that is a really useful article. I will keep rereading over the coming weeks. (Probably whilst I am puppy sitting - fingers crossed!) x

Don’t you dare stop feeling proud(!) still document your runs in some way so you have something to look back on/compare with, and, keep posting too! No difference except you’ll have a shiny badge!👍
