After struggling with the 2nd run of week 6,I set off with some trepidation for run 3 today!

I am not saying it was easy because it wasn't,but it was definitely better than run2 with the 2 separate 10 minute runs.......how can this even make sense???

Along the way I had a mixture of Kenny Rogers,The Proclaimers and Imagine Dragons.....all great running music!!!πŸ˜‚

Have a good week everyone......we can all do this wherever we are on the journey!πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

I did this one today. I think it's easier tan w6r2 as can keep the pace steady with with no slowing down to walk , which I started to find hard to get going again. I've not looked at the rest of the program but I guess there's no more walk intervals. 9 runs to go!

I do 2-3 times a week depending on my shifts at work which vary every week......

I have managed 3 runs this week but it will be Friday before I can start week7....

I would like it to be November but am not putting pressure on myself.....!!!

Keep going!!!
