Already on week 8, amazed I'm still looking forward to my runs.

I had a tough weekend at work but had planned to run this evening and was looking forward to it. Still finding my pace is up and down and during the course of my run I alternately enjoy it then can't wait for it to be over! But I always feel amazing afterwards and happy with my achievement.

I thought the app had broken today as it felt like I had been running forever! I stopped then a few seconds later Laura told me to slow down, oops!

That's with the warm up walks but not too shabby!

You might need to change your name Crawlhome, because you definitely didn’t today! Well done, that’s amazing! 👍🏻👍🏻😀

😁 The name comes from a song that seemed to fit when I was choosing in a rush! I did crawl uphill for the last couple of minutes, it's impossible to find a completely flat route near me. I've run four times this week as I started Monday, over 100 minutes!!
