Week 7

Just completed run 1 of week 7 and found it a struggle! Still I didn’t stop and somehow carried on for 25 mins. Think it may be the fact of too much alcohol this weekend! First time I’ve not enjoyed a run so hoping run 2 will be better.

Hydrate well, rest well and head out... slow and steady :)

The weather won't have helped! Well done on making it and goodluck for the next one

Hey there. Well, you did it! I found 7.1 quite draining. But today I did 7.2 (you can find my post with the sunset photo) and here’s something I noticed: when I set off I knew I can do this because I’d done 7.1 - so I didn’t have such a mental fight. I just got out there and got on with it. Felt awesome!

More water next time 😂
