Week 7 run 3, under a waterfall

Did the last run of week 7 this morning in sunny but not overly hot weather. Michael suggested I change my route, so I'm starting under this waterfall and running north along the valley.

25 minutes didn’t seem as long as it did on runs 1 and 2, which surprised me because I did a big hike in the mountains yesterday and I was a bit worried I might have overdone things. Any exercise is good exercise, it seems.

Looking forward to week 8, can’t believe I've made it this far, and I certainly wouldn’t have reached this point without all the inspirational stuff that you lot write on here 👍

Well done to you. Great picture. I did wk7 r3 at 6am this morning and as usual the first 5 mins were a struggle. Feeling confident about the extra minutes on Sunday though. Just wish I could up the distance. Happy running in that beautiful scenery ☺️

Yes the first 5 minutes are a bit of a struggle for me too. I don’t have anything that will measure my distance, so I just count the bus stops along the road 😂
