So once again I decided I was going out by myself rather than running group, 3k in 26 mins and upped my pace and enjoyed a relaxing run, I think solo running rather than group is best for me 😀 one happy little plodder tonight

Great job. I don’t enjoy running with others often... much better at our own pace with our own thoughts I think. Enjoy closing week 7 out.

Thank you, just need to decide if I do the last run of this week alone or go to group Friday night 🤔

Well done you, I’ve just done wk7 R1 and REALLY enjoyed it. I’ve always run solo and love the silence in my head. Dark, windy and rainy in Glasgow tonight and it was heaven. Can’t believe this is me talking...😂🏃‍♀️

I know what you mean, I really enjoyed just bumbling along with my greatest showman soundtrack playing 😂

Got to say i also love running alone. Going with others causes me to go to fast or slow. I love my me time!

It’s a good destress I find going on my own

I think I’d be lucky to find anyone who ran at my precise pace. And I like the freedom of making my own way, not adapting... that’s part of the relaxation. Hmmm - who would’ve thought 8 weeks ago I’d ever use the word relaxing in this context? 😄

I was just saying to a friend how relaxed I am after my run!!

Some slightly odd combo of relaxing and energising. Who knew? All for it. 👍

It’s very strange but I’m really liking it, that’s something I never thought I’d say 7 weeks ago 😂
