Just done run 1 of week 5. πŸ’ͺπŸ€›. Legs felt a bit heavy but breathing was spot on. Love this programme- Sarah M is keeping me going.

Ran past 1 pub, 2 Chinese takeaways, 1 Indian takeaway, 1 pizza place and a chippy. All very tempting πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. Must change my route

My route takes me past a fish and chip shop and 2 pubs so I feel your pain :-) well done on your run - you're doing great. I'm going to go for wk4 r2 tomorrow as it's due to cool down a bit, thank goodness!

Well done Shaky. I did my w5r1 today too! Was a great run for me.

I just have 1 pub and 1 Chinese to contend with on my route, but I feel far from being tempted in, quite the opposite. The smell when I am running makes me feel ill!!!

Maybe not each one 😁. The pub and then one of the Chinese’s might be my reward
