First Post Grad Run

And first evening run and the first time I have ever gone straight from my house in full view of the neighbours! Normally I scurry to the car and drive to a park 🀣🀣 on route I passed a fellow plodder complete with earphones and phone and we have each other a little smile. 😊 25 minutes later we saw each other again on opposite sides of a road and gave each other a big wave πŸ‘‹

I loved ever single second of my plod this evening 😁😁😁😁

You're in the runner gang now! And in full public view! You'll have to get some hot capris now! I think Flick is the expert there, I'm still adjusting to not wearing a sports bra any moreπŸ˜ƒ

Well done you. What's the post grad plan?

I'll definitely need another structure goal to make sure I keep going.

You're an inspiration.... Never have so few, done so much, for so many! X

Yay! No stopping you now 😁😁

Great to hear that Bridget. Fabulous! I'm also a bit afraid to run past the neighbours in case they think that I'm a 'real' runner. I did W9R2 today so maybe I am. I'll graduate on Tuesday or Wednesday and I'm going to move onto C25K+. I'm planning on doing an 8km in August but without a structure and advice, I get injured. So I'll be knocking around here for a while. Hope you will too.

Hi Bridget007, Great news! Glad post grad runs have begun. I often run before 6am because it is lovely and cool, but also enjoy avoiding too many folk. So much less hassle to run from your door! Well done you!

Hello 😊 and thank you! I admire anyone who can run before 6am! I can just about figure out how to put the kettle on at that time of the morning 😬

Just a glass of water and I'm set, that doesn't mean that I have properly woken up or even woken up at all!
