So I decided to move on not having technically competed w8R1 having to walk for 90seconds (May tag an extra day at the end of this week just so I don’t feel like a fraud! πŸ˜‰) but happy to say completed 28 minutes today πŸ™Œ.

The soothing tones of Aretha (RIP) kept my pace slow and the voices quiet!!

Gonna play some Aretha on my run tomorrow πŸ™πŸ»

Sounds like a good run... way to go. Maybe just do 4 week 9 runs instead πŸ˜‚
