Week8 Run1

Have to pinch myself, can't believe I've made it to week8 😁 I knew this would be hard but doable ... what's three more minutes, right? πŸ€”

It was much warmer than I thought & I'm still very snotty πŸ˜– but apart from the last couple of minutes, I enjoyed being out on the trail. Quickly found a comfortable stride and relaxed, it's great when the music matches your paceπŸ‘ but I didn't need telling twice when it was time to stop.

Once again at the end I feel like I've reached my limited πŸƒβ€β™€οΈdifference is I now feel confident that I'll be able to step it up when the time comes. This plan really does change the way you look at things

Well done lovely!! I'm getting so far behind. I'm going to do W6 R3 today when it cools down. I'm back at home now though so can get back into a proper routine.

Not long until you graduate now 😊😊
