Well. After a terrible week 6 run 3 run I was going to go back to week1 and start all over again. BUT no. The hubby told me not to. And hearing how well @runrunrun13 did yesterday!!bloody did it and actually really enjoyed it. Just goes to show how the same run on different days can be so completely different x

Have to agree with this. My run 3 week 6 was fab but today I really felt like I was struggling week 7 Run 1! Felt slow felt like I was massively struggling! However I reached over 5k first time ever and pace was the best it’s ever been.

Absolutely, I had to dump run 1 of week 8 after a matter of minutes, just not feeling it, I was grumpy all day, contemplated going back a week, but went back out the next day and nailed it, it's a mental battle, use the support to of others to keep going....Well done
