So Jo wanted me to speed up, so I did... a teeny weeny bit...

I can’t believe how much sweatier I got in the air conditioned gym compared to the cool morning air on Saturday. It’s so much nicer running outside, it’s just a shame the pavements aren’t as bouncy 😁

Anyway, first run of Week 8 completed. Legs were fairly tired to begin with after a very busy weekend, walking miles in a sweaty Womble costume for the Parade on Saturday and then walking miles around Cambridge on Sunday. Body is holding up very well so far *touches wood frantically*. Hopefully legs will get a bit of a rest tomorrow 🤞🤞🤞😁
