Week 7 Runs 1 & 2

Runs 1 & 2 completed! The weather was good and the tail wind helped on the last 5 minutes up the hill!

The photo is at a crossroads...and the question at this point is...do I turn right and run up hill or left and run up hill? πŸ˜‚

Still enjoying the challenges and I've started telling more people that I'm doing C25K 😊 I no longer question myself whether I can do this or not. I CAN DO THIS & I AM DOING THIS! Right to the end and beyond πŸš€

Looking forward to finishing Week 7 at the weekend when the weather picks up β˜”

Take care and have a wonderful weekend πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€οΈ

LOL, I don't think you can avoid hills in Sheffield. I used to live there back in the days before I even thought about running. I bet it makes for a wonderful place to do C25K.

I've lived in Sheffield all my life and the hills are part of what makes it special 😊

I'm lucky that I live very close to the dams and countryside. Running there is a real pleasure x

Well done you, you should be so pleased you're running and you never know by telling people that you are doing c25k they may start as well 😊😊

Decisions, decisions!

Great running... and those hills do build stamina really well, so they’re not all bad. Have a wonderful run 3

Don't be too hard on yourself! Not only have you started C25K, which is wonderful! But you're now on Week 7! You are doing great! Don't worry about the speed, just keep taking it slowly!

When you have rough moments, have a mental word with yourself. I do a lot of that 🀣 I also sing along to the music, which really helps 🎢

Good luck with the next run and keep posting your progress! X
