Slow is the new fast! Well done you, evening runs are harder, I've recently discovered! So well done on getting out there x

I love my slow runs... theyโ€™re always the best runs... embrace your pace, love those runs... and if you ever find yourself doing a speed session then youโ€™ll love the next slow one even more! Slow running builds endurance, and thatโ€™s what this plan is all about... youโ€™re doing great. You got this now.

Thanks so much for the support! I will remember that. Iโ€™m hoping to do the Race for Life on the 7th of July... not sure how realistic it will be to do 5k as a runner, but at least itโ€™s keeping me motivated to graduate-hopefully on this day! If not, itโ€™s a great cause to do a run and a walk ๐Ÿ˜‚

I call my run a juffle (someone else posted it in here) and it's the perfect term for it. It's so slow it's somewhere between a jog and a shuffle ๐Ÿ˜

Thank you! Good luck for tomorrow. You will be fine. I was amazed at how quick it went, but for me, itโ€™s always the last 5 minutes!! I feel totally knackered๐Ÿคฃ. Just remember youโ€™ve got this far... youโ€™ve got this ๐Ÿ˜Šx
