Just got home, It was my first run since graduation. It was great not fast but enjoyable which surprised me. just running for hell of it covered 6K in 40 mins and I feel great. I ran a lot further than I planned which left me a long walk home but it was a beautiful evening so ho hum. Now Iโ€™m home and buzzing. This running business is OK๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ˜€

Amazing run Runsome, and I hope the walk home was equally as enjoyable! I wouldnโ€™t call that slow! Iโ€™d be leaping around and shouting from the rooftops if I managed that! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

So well done you! Youโ€™ll be zipping around doing 10k before you know it! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Hi Thanks yes it was a very nice walk home and I hadnโ€™t been looking at the time. My next run is the shorter one on ju-juโ€™s plan I may try some hills, I hate hills so I will se how it goes and keep you posted. One question should I now be posting on the Bridge 2 10k pages? ๐Ÿ˜€

Hills. ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ Hideous things! ๐Ÿ˜… But theyโ€™re useful for fitness, so go for it!

You can post on either/both forums Iโ€™m sure. I think people who follow you will see your posts no matter where you put them. I might head over there after a Iโ€™ve got a few 5ks under my belt (scary!!)

Keep running, youโ€™re doing brilliantly! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
