Making it through Week 7

Run 1 and Run 2 โœ”

Our group took different routes on both runs so both seemed to end pretty quickly ๐Ÿ˜ธ

Kitten won't be with me for Run 3 tomorrow so I'm toying with the idea of stretching my legs out and go for a sub 5 minutes kilometer... Or 2. ๐Ÿ˜ธ

Wish me luck!

Oh itโ€™s on! Itโ€™s great fun too! Go bag a kilometre PB! Should I say that? I dunno... but you gotta enjoy your running, and if thatโ€™s what you want to do, go do it. Opposite to the usual advice if you do... keep the distance down, keep the duration down... hitting your fastest 1k or 2k is cool... trying to also go your usual duration will hurt and maybe not end well... so if you go for it, be careful out there.

Definitely start slow.... I'll see how I feel after the first 5 minutes. Maybe 10 minutes at usual 8 min/km then hope to lengthen my stride.

Report to follow tomorrow!

I look forward to it... but once youโ€™ve done it... slow or stop!

Take it steady Katnap, donโ€™t injure yourself

Katnap continues to crush it! I'm struggling to keep up with you as I've been away this week and only managed w6r3 so w7r1 for me tomorrow or Sunday and I hope I can do as well as you have. Well done!!
