W8R3 - Graduation in Sight and I have the Bug!

[Becky1606]

Just ran week 8 run 3 on the treadmill this evening and it was my favourite run of the programme - no toxic 10, or 12, just a lovely calm 28 with my audiobook.

It was so lovely that I carried through the cool down to 35 minutes of running and another 5k in the bag.

It was the first time running where I haven't wanted to stop, or quit and really felt that I could have carried on for longer than the 35! Maybe I'll look at B210k after this programme...

Graduation is FULLY in sight now: 3x 30 minute runs left and I will be on the podium!

When did you all realise you well and truly had "the bug"?

I think W5R3 was the run from heaven to me! Really loved that one! Have an amazing W9 Becky! ❤️

Thanks Fabulous! Better get our graduation hats ready!

Slow and steady to the podium... well done you!

I don't think I realised....it sort of took over

[Becky1606 Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Plodding along to the podium!! Thanks Oldfloss

[Tartiflette Graduate]

A great run like that is such a pleasure I was hooked from week 1, think it was the sense of achievement in running for a whole 60 seconds!!

[Becky1606 Graduate in reply to Tartiflette]

It's absolutely lovely I'm still glowing haha! Oh my gosh I know, those days seem like so far ago now but they were so exciting

[Tartiflette Graduate in reply to Becky1606]

See you on the podium soon. Have a great week 😄

Sounds like a good run! Which audiobook are you listening to? I think I might try one

[Becky1606 Graduate in reply to southlundon]

Thanks! was my fave run of the programme so far to be honest. At the moment I'm listening to "The Girl Before" by JP Delaney which is really good - like a thriller.

Was about half way through and I realised that I missed running on the rest days. It’s definitely addictive, see you on the podium and then onwards and upwards!

Congrats Becky! Definitely addictive.

Got me pretty much straight away!

Good luck with your graduation week. 😀
