Well that run was better than Wednesday.

I was struggling for the first 10 minutes and then hit the 12 minute mark and my body went, well ok then this is what we are doing fine with me and it was easier after that....

Think it was may be one of my slower runs but still enjoyed it and actually managed to do 34.5 minutes 😁😁😁

Can't believe I will graduate on Monday, wowzers.......

To anybody new reading this, if I can so can you 👍👍👍👍👍

:) To be fair, on w9r2 I only managed 31 minutes, so you’re currently ahead of my schedule.

Great work Lou. It is good when your body just settles into a run.

I feel a little guilty that I'm the only one not running longer than prescribed.

Good luck on Monday, I will be watching for your graduation post.

Ace work! If the Lord/Flying Spaghetti Monster/Cthulhu is willing and the creek don’t rise, you and I will be on the podium together on Monday! Shall we hold hands as we go through the final tape?

Brilliant. That made me laugh....

YESSSSSS, we will run through that tape together (at approx 10am with me) arms held high and bow to the running God's that saw us through the past 9 weeks and praise our running bloggers that continued to encourage us x
