One more to Go!

W9R2 Completed! Changed my route slightly to make it slightly easier to try and squeeze out he extra .25 mile I need. BUT only managed to get 0.01 increase! But at least it is a PB even though looks like I’m not going to break the 5K run before the end of the programme. But never mind because back in January I never thought I be able to do what I am now doing and that’s the important thing. So on to Saturday and my graduation run! Good luck to all my fellow travellers who I know are at the same or similar stage!

I know! I’m happy to be where I am! Just so close, but probably just too much to get just yet!

That final 1K or even the final few metres are so blinking elusive !

Hi Chris, enjoyed reading this, very similar to mine but much more eloquently put. But it’s great to rediscover the “joy” and freedom whilst running. Great stuff well done !

Well done Chris! I’ve just done this run this evening.

We have all come so far from January and it’s been tough at times! I still feel fabulous every time I complete a run! Afterwards, definitely not during! 😂🙈.

Good luck for your finale 👍💪👏👊
