5k pledge reached, including warm up and warm down (that counts right).

How do I flag this as done in the event ?

Download Strava - 👌

Then ?

Well done! That’s fantastic.

Easier than you thought?

Yes and no. I ran at a slow and steady 6.6km/h. I used the w9 podcast but when Laura said start walking now it was hard to carry on, I probably should have used my own music. However I told Laura that I would be carrying on if she didn't mind and got to 4.6km run and walked the last 400m as my warm down. I don't think Laura minded and the extra running was within my 10% limit.

That’s funny, you being tough on Laura. Shows you have outgrown the course (a good thing).

I wasn't exactly tough lol, I believe I said (out loud) No thank you, I will be carrying on if you don't mind lol

Yes I talk to my blue tooth speaker lol

I do think I need to.stpp using that podcast though now ( I only used it for consolidation) as her suggestions like "Maybe slow down a little bit" make me argue with myself. "She said you coukd slow down", "But I don't want to slow down", "go on, just a little.bit"......

This is definite proof that you have outgrown Laura. It’s time for you to go your separate ways. Laura won’t mind. In fact I’m sure she would be very proud.

Not what you're looking for?
