Completed my final run of Miles for Mind this morning, finishing with a total of 51.57 miles 😄

Went at 9.30 hoping to avoid the worst of the heat but had to contend with an uphill first half due to the fair being on my usual starting point. The uphill bit wasn’t fun but the downhill second half was lovely. But even at 9.30 it was hot and really muggy 🥵

So now Miles for Mind is over, I’ll be moving on to Ju-Ju’s magic running plan to help extend my distance. 5k, I’m coming for you!! 🏃‍♀️

Well done my lovely !!!! Amazing achievement and I was out at 6am, bit muggy at that time too but got to 27 miles.

We should all be SO proud of ourselves as we have smashed it and done our bit for charity...so pleased for you.

Pizza for me tonight and will raise a glass to all of us ! 🎉 🍕🍾🥇

I think I’m going to join Ju-Ju’s plan too may incorporate it with my Race Your Pace for June, going for 50 miles 😳😅

Can you join her plan at any time ?

That’s brilliant, well done!! We’ve all done brilliantly 😁👏🎉

Yes, you can just join anytime as far as I’m aware. There’s a link to Week 2 in the launch/Week 1 post. I’ve saved the pic of the actual plan but the posts explain the exercises that accompany the different weeks. I’ll have a look at the comments over the weekend just to double check though

Enjoy your pizza and glass of whatever it is! 🍾

Awesome job... 50 miles was a big target, but there was never a doubt (apart from maybe the gremlins whispering in your ears) that you wouldn’t take it out. Go bag that 5k... that magic plan is exactly what it says in the tin. Happy running.

It's my fave aslong as it has pineapple apart from goats cheese and onion chutney :) Dont do meat on pizza.

SeeJillRunGraduate in reply to Happyrunningfeet

It’s my fave as long as there’s no tomatoes on it. Yum 😋
