So back to running group I went tonight after 2 solo runs, amazing run, did 4.46k in 36 minutes, so happy after feeling the group running wasn’t for me and I wasn’t last over the finish line 😀

Nice running... I’m assuming you have the warmup in there... and great to read that you enjoyed that group run again. Enjoy week 8

We warm up on the track before we set off, the 4.46k was the run, our group seems to go on distance rather than the minutes we run now

Ahh... I was worried about the minutes... as it’s a non precise distance! Well done anyways, that’s the flavour of C25K you’re on and you’re doing great.

Think the aim was for around the 4.2k mark but the route was a tad longer, that’s using a Fitbit so it may be a bit out with distance, between 5 of us who were running together we all had slightly different distances 😂

Yeah... a 400m running track is longer in lane 8 😂. If it had said 4.4 I’d have recognised it as 11 laps, my brain works funny.

😂 we warmed up on the track then ran a route around the roads then finished with a lap around the track, could explain the strange number 😂

I should have posted my route the other week... kinda laps, each one started and finished at the same point and was maybe 90% the same as the last, but the map looked like I’d scribbled all over it.
