Phew! That was a hard run. It was humid and warm and uncomfortable from the beginning. Looking at our km times we went out too fast - we never do that! We did slow down and survived the 30 mins. The good thing is we never felt we had to stop. We've been taking two rest days between the longer runs but hadn't done that this time, just one whole rest day since Wednesday . We could tell!

Final run planned for Monday evening! Excited!

The wine is going down well.....

Well done Ang! What a star! (Or is it stars? Are you running with someone else?)

I’m really thrilled for you! I have to say I always notice a big difference when I’ve had 2 days rest.

Good luck for your graduation run on Monday!

Thank you! I run with my sister who is much taller than me. She has a long stride. I haven't! It's been fun! We were both non runners before. It's good to have someone to run with.

Two days rest from now on!!
