W9R2 completed this morning, I was really tired today this is actually the worst I have felt on any of the runs in the programme, but I did it.

Did my Wk9R2 this morning as well, an also felt a bit poo - but kept going! Good luck for the final run, doing mine on Thursday, just hope the predicted rain holds off long enough for me to squeeze it in without getting soaked! :o)

Good for you and we’ll done, you’re so nearly there. I’ve recently completed the programme and I think it’s finally caught up with me so I’m taking a couple of days where I don’t do any exercise to rest my body. Sometimes you will feel more tired for all sorts of reasons but that’s normal.

Well done for having kept going, I know how hard it is, hopefully you’ll have a much better run next time and as you’ll have completed the programme you’ll be on a high and no longer notice the tiredness. Good luck for your graduation run!

Tough runs come along, tougher runners beat them. Great job, enjoy that graduation run.

I will continue after my recovery Katnap but I will obviously start back down the programme at bit depending on how I feel.

But the next run is your graduation🏆🏆

I’m feeling mixed emotions - thrilled to be graduating and a bit worried about how I will make sure I continue

Also I thought the 30 mins would be easy after all the 25s and 28s - possibly got carried away with speeding up my pace 🙈

Enjoy Thursday !!
