So after having 2 weeks off following a fibro flare where I have done little bar pop pain killers and sleep I finally got round to week 9 2un 2. I did contemplate going back a few weeks but temptation got the better of me and I thought...just go for it and see what happens!

The gym I train In a

Has new equipment and i used to run at 5.8 on the old machines.....well turns out that was kph and the new machines are mph so I almost had an embarrassing start there. But any who. .I did it! And did my best distance yet so although I'm not doing 5km I am improving. No doubt I will be in pain tomorrow but so help me I'll be back in that gym Wednesday for my graduation run!!!

Great job... 1.6 times faster at the start too! That’s pretty amazing... well done dealing with that! Love every step of your graduation run... it’s the celebration of all the hard work that got you to that start line.
