End of week 8 😱

Long day at work, long drive each way. It was dark, it was cold, but at least it wasn’t raining. Am fighting off some kind of lurgy but I really want to graduate without stopping. I ran with my daughter today and it felt really good. It wasn’t fast but we all know that doesn’t matter. I really enjoyed it. Who am I?? I am so glad I started this, but why didn’t I do it years ago??

Great job. What matters is the future, not the past. Besides if you’d done this years ago we wouldn’t know you now! Here’s hoping the lurgy goes away.

Enjoy that victory lap that is week 9.

Dido here but your ahead of me! Am doing my week 7 run two tomorrow with a head cold! Must be proof we are enjoying doing this or else we would jump for the excuse not to! But I am still itching to go!

And well done you!

Take it gently and if the lurgy gets worse.. then ease off.. the run will still be there.. and you will enjoy it more if you feel on form.
