Well as promised I did my 8k run today! Perhaps I should have picked a less hilly route! It was hard but I am very pleased to have done it. 54 minutes 20 seconds so pleased with my time too. Next week onwards for the next month will be tricky as on holiday πŸ˜€.

That’s fantastic, well done! Sounds like you’re at the same place on Ju-Ju’s plan as me - I’ve got an 8k this weekend. Actually a bit nervous 😬 I’m impressed you’re doing it with hills too πŸ˜΅πŸ‘πŸ»

Good luck with your 8k. I’m sure you will do great. We only have hills round here unfortunately!

Well I guess this time last week I didn’t believe I could do 7k! 😁

Must be tough then - but your legs will be so strong! πŸ˜΅πŸ‘πŸ»

Thank you Buddy34. Bit nervous about holiday running as not sure where I’ll be able to go. Might not be able to go as far, especially after a game of golf.

Has your hotel got a gym?

No staying in a house for the month. I am sure I will find some trails.

Wow, wow, wow.... 35 minutes is my absolute limit at the moment.

Though you may have just spurred me on to try a little longer today!
