Was talking myself out of this run all day because last week was tough, but got on with it and it’s the first run that I can say I slightly enjoyed. Starting to feel like I might make it to graduation 😀😀

Well done! And good news that you enjoyed it, albeit only slightly. Keep at it, hopefully you’ll enjoy it more and more, and it’s now only 5 runs till graduation 👍😁

You will make it to graduation!

How can you come this far and not graduate? You can do it. You know you can. You've proved you can run for 28 minutes, so can do I tiny 2 more :-)

I know this is said a lot, but it's so true. If you're finding it tough, just slow down a little bit. There is no rush. You'll find the run a little easier and therefore you'll enjoy it more.

In just 2 weeks, you will have graduated and you can play about with speed to your hearts content 😁
