Too long a break between 2nd and 3rd run but couldn’t be helped. The slow running has been a game changer for me! Happy running 🏃‍♀️ folks

Good work.

I don't quite get you - "Too long a break between 2nd and 3rd run"?

You mean 3 minutes walking felt too long?

You finished week 3 anyway! Bravo. Now the fun starts. 😜✌

Ta I think! That sounds ominous!! Lol meant between my midweek run and today, too many days but work and family meant I had to wait till today. How’s yours going?

Ah, I see.

Yeah, I did W4R3 on Friday which was good and absolutely zilch over the weekend apart from tidying the house. The change of weather has brought plenty of spiders in which I've been trying to catch.
