Gremlins rife this morning, duly told to naff off. Thought l would see if l could plan my route to incorporate 5k, which l have. Took me 39.28 secs but this included both my 5mins walk. Now filled with believe that l can run for 30 mins, which is my goal. Got to love those 🐌🐌 Happy running every one πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Well done. I had the Friday gremlins too. Once your up and going you soon forget them.

Well done! I also had the gremlins on W6R2! Run 3 was great though!

Great that you are on course for the 5k, so very near!!!

Yep, those gremlins were out to get me this morning, but I ignored them and managed to complete Week 6 Run 2 without stopping. My nose just wouldn't stop running though; hard to run and blow your hooter at the same time. I need to plan a different route for Sunday's run as, now that I'm running for more time, I'm finding I'm more impatient about pedestrians/ crossing roads/wonky footpaths etc!

Luckily no such hazards for me Scarlettbunnykins. A few dog walkers & of course running past the cemetery πŸ‘»πŸ‘»πŸ‘»πŸ‘» are about it for meπŸ˜‚ Have fun Sunday, you’ll smash itπŸ‘πŸ»

Great job... not sure about those snails, I’m running at 36 minute 5k pace going into week 9 and you’re marginally slower with walking πŸ˜‚. Enjoy that next one... that 30 minutes isn’t far away now.
