Just back from 7.2. Started off in the silvery moonlight, then the sun came up, lighting up the sky like a celestial paintbox of pinks and purples and oranges. Beautiful!

Good thing I had something nice to look at because I actually found today quite hard, which I hadnโ€™t expected, and which was a bit disheartening.

Ho hum, onwards and upwards to 7.3 ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

But you did it!!!! A beautiful morning!

Some runs do feel harder. Donโ€™t feel disheartened because when you push through & finish the hard run.. you are strengthening your resolve to finish! Itโ€™s the hard runs that make us stronger, not the easy ones so ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽˆwell done to you!!

I wasnโ€™t feeling it either with 7.2 or 7.3, so after taking advice form these great guys here slowed my pace right down, rehydrated loads and re did 7.3 this morning. I felt like I could have run forever ๐Ÿ˜„ slowing down my pace helped so much and makes these little hurdles easier to get over. Your are doing brilliantly, look how far youโ€™ve come. Take your time, do what feels right for you, before you know it youโ€™ll be graduating ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

Aww thanks!

Iโ€™m already running pretty slowly ๐ŸŒ๐ŸŒ And when it got hard today I did slow down some more which did help. Just a bit frustrating as I did 6.3 and 7.1 fine!

Well done on your run ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
