W5R3 ✅ 🙂

Who knew eight weeks ago I’d be setting my alarm for 4.45 to go out running - not me! But here I am having completed W8. Set Map my Ride just for the run and managed 4.6km - wow I’m so happy. Now time for the all important cuppa!

Brilliant - I’m an early morning runner like you. So nice being out when it’s less busy & the birds are singing. 4.6 km is a great distance. 😉

Thank you! Yes I switched to early morning because I absolutely struggled in the heat and when I did it was like a 💡I much prefer it and it’s such a lovely time of day. I’m fortunate that my runs are on a nature trail so mostly lots of shade. The direct sun zaps you doesn’t it? Well done on W5R3 - psychologically it’s a massive step! But do beware W6R1 it can catch you out. Lots of good tips on here though. Happy running!

I’ve just had a quick run as I was ready later than expected. People seemed to be leaving home for work so I headed for home before I turned to stone! 😂👍🏻
