Week 6 R3 Whoop Whoop!

I am a runner! I ran a little over 3k in 25 minutes and didn’t die! As ever, the first 10 minutes was the hardest. I wouldn’t say my last 60 seconds was in any way a sprint but it was quite fast...... i happened to meet my son coming home from school at this point and he was impressed with how fast I was going!

Thanks to my running buddy ktsok for cheering me on. We got this 🏃‍♀️

I'll have to work up to that. Quietly under my breath at the moment ... slow and steady progress required :)

Great job runner... and you’re so pumped you had to post twice 😂

Impressing the son for speed is a huge moment... and this way is better than trying to slow the kids down apparently!

Enjoy week 7.
