Almost defeated wk 6 r 1

Today's run almost defeated me. I haven't been out in 8 days due to heat and other commitments.

Got cramp in both legs but pushed on through.

Won't go this long without again.

Almost, but it didn’t! Great going Kitt! Well done you! Enjoy your rest day! Drink plenty and remember to go slow on your next run too! You’re doing so well. 😁😁❤️

You completed it though - that’s the main thing. 😀

This is a real bogey run. There are loads of posts about it! Move on to R2. I did it this morning, and it was soooooo much more enjoyable for me than R1.

Just stay slooooow!

😀🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️❤️

Sounds like you had a massive success to me, well done, don’t underestimate each achievement, you are continually be faced with more stringent tests, but you are better prepared for them, and it is tough in this weather

But it didn’t defeat you Kitt - you did it! Well done. Next time will be better, just you wait and see. 💪👍😊

It’s like the old riddle: would you rather be nearly drowned or nearly saved? ‘Almost defeated me’ is just another way of saying ‘didn’t defeat me.’ Well done.
