Good evening fellow runners how hot is it ? Had to do week 8 run 1 on the treadmill all went well although I didn't enjoy the run as much as running outside. Its was just to hot keeping fingers crossed run 2 will be done outside . 5 runs to go getting excited sleep well 😊

I also did week 8 run 1 today. It was really hard in the heat. I just ran up and down the same shaded stretch of track, turning each time I reached a sunny bit. Might wait til after dark for next run!
I did that on the same run this evening! Ran up and down the side of a wood in the shade. Slowest run yet, but I do t care! 😊🏃🏻♀️
Well done to you going to do run 2 early doors not long now for us 😊
I won’t believe it til I’ve done it. At 51, with 30 years of back pain, this is massive for me. And I love it! Bonus!
I know what you mean im 55 next Tuesday and I get such a buzz plus its me time . Any plans after your graduation ? 😊
Gin and a park run??? Yesterday, when I hurt my ankle I said ‘I’ll be really f***ed off if I can’t run tomorrow ‘. I never thought I would ever utter those words....
I know - I feel the same if I feel a twinge! I’m also on week 8 - run 2 tomorrow - and can’t believe we only have 5 runs to go. 53 and never run before - I absolutely love it and look forward to each run - it’s unbelievable isn’t it??
It seems like we should all graduate around the same time! 🎓
I was itching to get out yesterday. First toxic 10 always painful, then relax into it and let it flow. Never in a million years did I think I’d be able to do this. Yes should be graduating hopefully soon. I’m in Holland next week, so looking forward to at least one flat run! Well done us! 🏃🏻♀️👊
I'm not sure if I'm actually enjoying running yet. More like it's nice when it stops. My stamina has definitely improved but my legs ache so much. I'm 58 and have never run before. Some proper running shoes might help but as I take a size 11 I'm putting off buying any cos they'll look like a pair of canal barges!
