W6R2 - Last of the Walking

[DoozerMcDooze]

I'm pretty sure I could have run longer today, which I guess is a good thing as I looked at the next run... 25mins none stop.... Gulp... Looks frightening, but I've done all the runs up to that, and I've seen loads of you lot do this, so bring it on.

Yesterday I got some running socks, as recommended by some friends. All things I would not understand just a couple of months ago.

I "came out" as a runner on my other social media stuff, and got alot more support rather than the piss takening I was expecting. One of friends did say "no offense but I can't image you running"

When I told my Dad, he just turned round and said "why? What's going on, you quit smoking, starting running have you joined a cult?"

I am so glad I started this, I have notice my fitness improve loads, and I can give it that little more at gigs.

Im sure I'm gonna right a song about this experience....

I know it's not easy, but one foot in front of other I'll get there.

Great job. Nice that you’ve come out and friends are maybe shocked, but also supportive. I like your dad’s sense of humour too.

25... it’s a great run... got me a little emotional at the end, so did W1R1 but that emotion was anger. Enjoy it, you got this then.

We need an official C25k song! You could spend the next few runs putting some lyrics together

I hope you told your dad that you have joined the Cult of C25k.

Fab job too

My advice is, you've told them now, so don't mention it anymore ( except when speaking to other runners, or if someone asks you) especially at any social occasion, though I know its tempting to talk about your pb, or your new trainers, running route, tracking device etc. I've found its a bit like being a vegan ( which I'm not) but basically nobody else bl**dy cares! Lol.

Of course, we all care on here so this is the place to bang on about it🤣🤣🤣
