Wk6 R3!!!

β€’18 Replies

Well after a break in the weather (it was raining again lol) finally got out to finish w6 and I'm so happy 😁😁. Half way through I didn't think I'd be able to complete it but got a second wind from somewhere and even managed to pick up the pace alittle at the end .. Running is really helping me physical and mentally which can only be a good thing so long may it continue. Bring on week7 and happy running people πŸ‘ŒβœŒ

Well done GMAN. Sounds like you've got it well under control, finding your next gear and all : )

Thank you backintime. It's hard work but I'm enjoying it which I think is half the battle πŸ‘ŒβœŒ.

Yes, the challenge makes it better. I think we wouldn't feel such a sense of achievement if we didn't work for it

Fantastic stuff GMAN you’re right the benefits all round of doing this is fabulous, of course I knew you’d smash it, it’s very daunting thinking about the fact there’s no more walking but you’ve channeled the run bunnies and smashed it mate πŸ€ͺ🀘πŸ€ͺ🀘

in reply to Richlfb

Thanks Richlfb. Don't know about those run bunnies mate, it was more eye of the tiger lol. πŸ‘ŒβœŒ

I had to stop listening to the β€œrunning with Rocky” playlist on Spotify, I nearly killed myself as in my head I regressed to being an 18 year old racing snake!! πŸ€ͺ🀘πŸ€ͺ🀘

Lol at this rich!! A good tune is a game changer when you’re getting through a run isn’t it 🀣

It really is a game changer, I play drums too so that helps with my pace right up until iron maiden come on and then I’m dead πŸ€ͺ🀘πŸ€ͺ🀘

Well done for completing Week 6, GMAN1977, you're doing great! No more intervals now, just lovely longer runs to enjoy your new running legs and see where they take you. And you're officially a runner now! πŸƒ
