Why?

Why do i have to go to work? why is it so hot? why did i bang my knee cap on my desk this afternoon?

Why oh why? and woo flipping hoo!!!

25 minutes ran we can now call ourselves runners

Cold play kept us going and Michael dropped in every so often to push us on

My wonderful partner went off faster than me so i had to up my speed every so often to catch up then he dropped briefly back to a walk for a few strides

I’m feeling so happy just now even if we are dripping

Thank you, and i just spotted what my phone did to that word, I so enjoyed it and speeding up was fun and i realised i could have carried on a bit faster but was aware of the heat

Always keep something left in the tank... speed and distance can follow graduation:)

Yes which is why most of it was slow although we are faster and fitter than we were in week 1

I am sure you enjoyed your run today despite the heat, why do you call yourself "rubbers", should that not be runners after running for 25 minutes, congratulations, yes you are now OFFICIALLY a RUNNER after completing run 3 of week 6, a 25 minute run. 🏃 😊
