Week 7 done!

I actually can't believe I've made it this far 😊 R3 in the bag!

I posted last week about how I feel like I'm waiting to enjoy running, but I think I get it now.... when that half way bell dings I feel comfortable, and know I can finish. Before this week I've never considered finishing a run as guaranteed, whereas now I feel like it is. So even though it's still not what I'd call "enjoyment" I feel really good about that feeling, so I shall settle for that haha.

I started paying attention to what distance I'm actually covering this week, in the 35 minute total today I reached 4.4km, so I'm excited to see what week 8 brings now! 🏃🏼‍♀️

That’s fab and the turn around in your head I also don’t find it easy and everyone’s positivity helps me I hit an almost wall and thought I’d bow out half way bells spurred me on so I looked around and breathed yoga breathing to push through.
