Great effort- each week just as hard as you make it, you get to choose fast/slow and hills/flat. Slow and steady wins every time though as it gets you to the end. Happy running

I been doing hills in my runs in week three thinking it will help later on in the weeks to come but as the runs get longer think I look to do flatter runs no hills πŸ˜‚

Routed are there to be changed and adapted as your fitness and weather dictate. Enjoy

How are the new shoes going

Ok, if a bit weird, as I went up a size (as recommended) so they look like boats on me. But they fit great πŸ€” Waterproof should come in handy if the current weather is anything to go by β˜”οΈπŸŒ§πŸ’¦

Do they recommend to go up one size ?

Well I’ve read it a few times in various running website, I can’t remember if it says so in the How to post on here. And Decathlon recommend it in their blurb. I think it’s because feet can swell when running - just call me big foot!
