Week 9 run 1 repeat - successful :-)

[pianoteacher]

After my failed attempt to run for 30 mins straight in Parkrun a couple of weeks ago this morning I did it!

So pleased I'm not sure I could have held a conversation (my boyfriend's reply to this was "Ooo I might start coming with you....." cheeky git!) but the pace felt comfortable and a "happy pace" for me.

Used my son's phone and mapmyrun and while I don't think it's entirely accurate my average pace was 9min19secs per mile - bang on the time required for the Army! I've only got to go 1.5 miles for that rather than 3.1 so I'm super pleased

Happy running everyone x

Well done you got it and your pace is amazing I’m more snail like lol

[pianoteacher Graduate in reply to SammieCh]

Nothing wrong with snails

Pace is so individual - I got overtaken by an old man going about twice my pace this morning! Getting to 30 mins is a fantastic achievement no matter what speed you do it at x

Old people can be scary.... Tho "old" is a relative term....

[sallenson Graduate]

Please don't join the Army tho!!

Thanks Ang!

Pretty much the same speed as the failed attempt but somehow today it just felt much more comfortable
