W6r3 done.

Can’t say I enjoyed this run but did like the feeling when I completed it. Didn’t help that I knocked my phone off the treadmill and it stopped my music. Started this off again and continued my run. I was keeping an eye on the clock on the treadmill and couldn’t understand why Sarah didn’t tell me 1 minute to go.... carried on regardless. Why has she told me time is up, I thought. Logged into my phone only to notice that when I’d dropped my phone it had also stopped the run at 5mins to go. I ended up doing an extra minute 😤 I must say don’t feel as elated as I did when I completed w5r3

Well done 👍

I did 7 weeks on a treadmill and then decided to brave it outside (having to run back and forth by the local pub with them all sitting outside and then taking my life in my hands on our narrow windy lanes with no pavements 😳)

Saying that, it is a totally different experience outside, as everyone told me it would be, and it's put a whole different slant on things. I'm not sure I would say I'm addicted yet but I certainly have a huge sense of achievement from an outside run.

Not for everyone but maybe worth a try sometime 🏃

Happy running !

Yes must be more interesting running outside although the gym is air conditioned and no hills - not sure how I’d cope with hills and heat! Will give it a go when it cools

Not what you're looking for?
