No wind, no rain. Best run to date. Absolutely loved it. I normally really struggle for the first bit until I get in to it. But not today. Loved it x

No wind? No Rain? Ok... I got neither either today... that hail hurts right?

Great job... and now it’s time for your victory lap... enjoy week 9.

Hi Fiona, yep well actually I snuck it in yesterday whilst I was down south on a weekend break. Sadly it was mainly on tarmac - a noisy roadside footpath rather than in the peaceful countryside - but anyway I managed to keep a fairly steady pace. Then, at 11 mins to go I somehow <paused> my phone App ! When the “ Well Done ... only 5 min to go” prompt didn’t happen (bye now I was tired and really “huffing and puffing” ). I checked and realised my mistake Ughh! Anyway I didn’t stop and restarted the timer. So in effect I run an extra 4 mins - phew !!! The good news is now I know I can do this. On 2 runs to go - tomorrow and hopefully Friday is Graduation Day. Wishing you well. Springs in the air.
