Yay I made it! Even ran up the long hill I’ve been avoiding since week 2. I did decide to turn around before attempting to run up the 20% hill as I didn’t want to completely kill myself in doing it and I reckon that sort of thing can wait till after I’ve graduated.

Soooo excited 😅

whoop! Well done! You can absolutely take those hills in when you are ready :D 98m though sounds hefty enough!

The first part was 170m+! I’m definitely noticing a difference now when I run up them from five weeks ago 😊
