A wet one today but enjoyable

Week 5 run 2 today and the last couple of minutes were hard but do-able. I run in undulating hills with uphill to finish and I felt it!However, at the end of the first 8 mins I definitely felt I could keep going and the 5 min recovery walk felt too long to be honest. After some excellent advice and support on here around week 5 I have changed my mindset around the 20min run: this will be Thursday or Friday and I am looking forwards to seeing how I get on with it. Happy running, all πŸ‘πŸ’ͺπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

Way to go Molly!

And fair play to you running up these hill things! πŸ’ͺ So far I've done flat all the way.

Enjoy the 3rd run, it's seriously the best of all πŸ‘.
