Just did the 30min run!!! Along the promenade and coast road in Newcastle, Co Down!! Wet and really windy but just perfect for running ⭐️⭐️ I did 3.5kms in the 30mins so I’m happy with that too 🏃🏽‍♀️ ⭐️🏃🏽‍♀️👊🏻

What a great start to Week 9. Two more to go and it's there. Try and enjoy these as you've earned your progress. Good luck!

What a fantastic place to run, you never know, you might run up Donard someday 😉

I have climbed Donard a lot of times when I was younger and loved it. Last summer, the thought of remaining overweight and so unfit that I would never do it again was one of my main incentives to lose weight and get fit! I will do it this year again!! That’s another goal for me ⭐️⭐️😁😁

I go to the Mourne often in spring and summer, I love to go up Donard, have been doing it for 40 years. I can't wait until the weather improves.

I hope you make it up again 😀👆

Thanks, will!! I’m determined and it better be a bright day so I get the amazing view from the top 😁😁

You can't beat the view from the top, it's well worth the climb 😁
