W9R2 The Penultimate One

I decided to have just one days rest this time as physio had said to try it out before next appointment which is on Monday.

Today’s run was pretty much a carbon copy of Monday’s and went ok. It got a little bit tough about 10 mins in, but got a “Hazy Cosmic Jive” kick from DB, which spurred me on.

I can’t quite believe I’m finally at this point to be honest, but bring on the Final Encounter, that’s what I say!

Only one to go, I found it hard to wait and was really impatient to get out there and finish it after 9.2 😁 Not long to go!

Yes it is! I feel quite emotional, and I haven’t even done it yet ( and I don’t want to jinx it either 😆

Just take it easy and enjoy it whilst reflecting on how far you have come since those first weeks of running for one minute. What an achievement it will be to celebrate . Happy running 🏃‍♀️

So exciting, Wenderwoo. It is funny the final week...I think it should be three different runs or recordings to make them say something different...wow next one. Fantastic. 💃🤞🎶👀🏃‍♀️

Thanks, It feels weird tbh, probably because I never thought I get to this point. Planning on doing it on Saturday when husband is home 😁
