Week 8 - Run 2 (Rain Rain Go Away)

[RunRunRun13]

Blustery and Mr rain was with me again but got through the run...legs felt little bit like a jelly mould at the end but didn’t drink as much water yesterday as I normally do. I even ran up a slight hill, unlike Rocky where he celebrates at the top it took everything just to keep my heart beating !! 😂 Happy running....alarm set Thursday ⏰

Great job, and you can celebrate now ⭐️

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to ButtercupKid]

Great job getting out in the horrible weather. The slight inclines do get easier with time luckily. Enjoy your final run of Week 8! 🏃‍♀️

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to SeeJillRun]

Thanks Jill...I did have a chuckle to myself as I got to the top of the incline (thought I was fitter, obviously a way to go yet) 😂 🏃‍♀️

[SeeJillRun Graduate in reply to RunRunRun13]

Lol! My first time up the slight incline on my route I thought I was dying ( this was back in Week 1). Now I barely think about it but I am avoiding the hills for now, difficult to do in Sheffield as it’s all hills 😂😂

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to SeeJillRun]

😂 I ran up a few steps too and thought I was “Rocky” 🥊 💪 🥊

[SeeJillRun Graduate in reply to RunRunRun13]

😂😂 Go you! 🥊 💪 Not tackling steps until I extend my route n cross the river but I’m a way off that yet

Well done. Think how much we're going to enjoy it when the lovely weather comes (I'll be moaning it's too hot then ) ! I'm just about to download "Eye Of The Tiger" after reading your post xx

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to mummybowles]

I thought exactly the same about when it gets hot I shall wish it was raining. Ha ha ! I love the whole Rocky soundtrack makes me feel “fit” even though you could change a letter and that’s really what I feel ! 😂 (in fact I can see two words that sum it up) 🤐😂

[FionaLamb Graduate]

Hey rocky!! Well done. You are doing amazingly well x x I’m off for my week8 run 1 in half hour. My lovely neighbour is coming with me, think he could tell I was getting worried. Well done you x

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to FionaLamb]

Thanks so much Fiona...wind and rain wasn’t on my side but did it ! Good luck for tonight’s run - your first 28 minutes which is only 3 mins more than you have been doing...lovely that you have company on your run, let’s hope they don’t chat for the whole 28 min run (I could do a sentence and that’s about it) 😂🏃‍♀️

[Kimbov Graduate]

I did this run today too! Felt like it was never ending 😂🙈👏xx

[FionaLamb Graduate in reply to Kimbov]

But it did end and so did we. Well done x Thursday 🤪

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to Kimbov]

Well done today ! I felt like that too 😂

[FionaLamb Graduate in reply to RunRunRun13]

You are on fire 🤗. Who would have thought 8 weeks ago ........

[RunRunRun13 Graduate in reply to FionaLamb]

I definitely felt on fire at the end 😳 ! Still can’t believe running for 28 mins non stop 🏃‍♀️

I feel your pain. I went out a few weeks ago when the weather was pants too! My legs were like to lumps of ice. It probably wasn’t ideal I went out in shorts!! When I usually get to the top of a small hill I’m a got sweaty mess! Haha. We all love it done we.

[RunRunRun13 Graduate]

I wouldn’t say the word “love” and running go together 😂 but worth it in the end 🏃‍♀️
