Week 8 run 1! It's hot out there😎

Week 8 run 1 done in the supposed coolness at 5.45 this morning! Felt really good early on (bit fast) seem to struggle pacing myself over these longer runs, I'm sure it will come!

Think my post of a few days ago was overly optimistic of possibly doing a Parkrun in sub 30 mins (aim high I always say). If this heat doesn't cool down before the 14th (possible graduation day) may just forget running at 9 am (parkrun) and run early as usual! Nearly there now. Been a great journey which I hope to keep doing. Anybody else getting close now keep going we are nearly there!!! 😰👍

So well done.

Great determination following your early set backs.

Great that you are contemplating your PARKRUN plans.The hot weather is a factor and you will know yourself when it comes round.

Good thing no pressure on either side, you or the Sat morning.

Looking forward to seeing your podium.💫🏃‍♂️💫

Good thanks Chelsea.👍

Can only dream of sub 30, but that is the long term plan.

Look out for Roseabi’s Speed challenge in Oct.

The summer one just completed yesterday over on Marathon.

I am on week 4 of 10 the magic number Juju’s 10K plan.👍Over on the bridge.

All great.

Lots of options for you to consider when you are ready.

Run because we can.🌟👏👏

I will be watching with interest.👍👏👏

I’m doing the same run today too but will be doing it on the treadmill in the gym after work (I’m enjoy my sleep far too much to drag myself out of bed earlier!) I can’t believe we’ve made it this far! I’m planning to graduate on the 15th but there’s no where around me that does park runs on a Sunday so i’ll have to stick to bossing it on my own!
