So for my wk9 run 2 i set out in sweltering 28c heat to do the Race for Life. This was my first proper organised run and it was an amazing experience with some incredible stories. Managed to run it all and set a new pb just coming in sub 40 mins. Such a fab experience and running the RFL was the goal I set myself when I started c25k. So only wk9 run 3 left....and then my sister has challenged me to a 10k in Autumn!!!! Couldn't have done it without all the wisdom,advice and support from this forum.
