Week 7 Run 3

I’ve not journalised my progress recently because foolishly I wore a new pair of shoes without socks and then suffered a large blister on one heel. This meant running (and walking) was very painful. Thanks to fresh air, rest and Compeed I was back out running this morning and the final week 7 Run. Must admit the first 12.5 mins were tough, but this running lark is really all about mind over matter and I managed to complete. Pleasingly without any pain in the heel.

Ironic that the main injury I’ve had since starting the program was not to do with running !! Onward and upward to Week 8 👍🏻

Huge well done you... glad that blister has healed.... Interestingly, many of my spells on the IC are non running related:)
