Great sign that you have a gear to to up... no need to use it yet!

Almost on week 9, just keep doing what you’re doing.

That's so great! Well done!

I did W7R2 today but found it quite hard. Had a stitch throughout. Need to drink more...

My w7r2 wasn’t my favourite either, I didn’t get my breathing rhythm right I seem to remember. Maybe it’s the nature of the run xx

Yes, same here. It's the first run that I felt like stopping for. But I didn't. Hopefully, tomorrow's run will be better.
