Out the door at 6.40am on a beautiful morning, the sun was shining and decided I was going to nail it....It was a lot easier than my last run and Jo was so quiet in my ear that I thought she had gone to sleep but then she announced I had 5 minutes left ! I promised myself a secondhand Garmin watch on Ebay if I finished Week 7 - well I actually bought one and should arrive today so had to finish the run. Have a great day everyone πŸƒβ€β™€οΈβ˜€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈHello Week 8 will see you on Sunday ⏰

Thank you....I went for quite an old model Garmin Forerunner 10 for under Β£20 on ebay...it’s a lot chunkier than yours but screen is big so I will be able to see it ! πŸ˜‚

Well done you - I did the same re the Garmin (but got ahead of myself - it arrived yesterday!) Today will be my first run where I can see what’s what while running. (Although I don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing!!) x

I’ve looked at my Garmin a couple of times on the run but forgot to press start at the beginning of the run...so took a while to find the gps, took 5 mins to find it, then I pressed a wrong button and it paused later on ! πŸ˜‚ Apart from the useless user it’s a great buy ! Sure you will love it !

πŸ˜‚... Well, I thought I’d converted my measurements to km, but it came up in miles... so I had NO idea where I was at, or what I was doing!! (Apart from thinking my slowness was out of control!!) πŸ˜‚
