I was lacking energy today and didnt have the energy to make extra effort in the last 60 seconds😥 But when I looked at my results I saw I had done 4.4k and that made me happy🙂 Even though I was lacking energy I still ran the whole run and managed a reasonable distance🏃‍♂️ Happy running!

Well done for keeping going and doing so well on your distance that is really good!

I'm just about to go and do the same run this morning (& really struggled with the last one) - am trying not to overthink it but suspect it will be the same for me with this one.....I'm no where near you on achieving the distance you have run - I'm just concentrating on keeping moving for the full 25 mins.....!

Hello - something cropped up yesterday so I didn't do my run until just now....it was really hard work again but just committed to keeping going (slowed down a little bit after the half way point).....but I did manage to complete it - slow but sure - and will worry about the distance (only managing 3 km including the walking each end) once I can run for the full 30 mins!

But yay (!) did manage to do it and have got a reminder in for the next run this Friday.....keep saying to myself I can't give up now after all this hard work - besides which I need to catch up with the likes of you getting to 4.4 km !!

well done for getting out there! don't worry about your distance I've been told that comes with time. Besides my legs may be longer than yours ;)

That is a really good distance, well done. 👍👀

That's a great sign that you still had something left in the tank even though you weren't 100 %. A real indicator you're primed to graduate 😊
