Week 8 Run 2

[Workingathome]

Well that’s another one ticked off! I found it a bit harder tonight, I went out a little later so don’t know if that’s why, I have to say it’s the first time that I honestly felt like stopping before the end and I had to dig very deep to keep going... when Michael said I was doing well and might want to change the pace I took him at his word and went slower (don’t think that’s what he meant really 🤦🏻‍♀️)... but keep going I did and was very proud of myself when I finished 😄

Well done you! From what I've read on here and the FB group it seems lot of people have struggled this week. It may be the warmer more humid weather?

Have a bath with Epsom/magnesium salts and drink plenty of water x

Well done for not stopping and finding the rest of energy to finish!!! Impressive!!

Good luck for the next run, I bet it will be easier again!

🤣 It's great to know that I'm not the only one who slows down when they say "change the pace" 😉.... no shame in that.....it's better than stopping completely. Well done you. I'm on wk7r3 tomorrow 🤞

Really well done! What you’re describing is exactly how I felt on that run. I have forced myself not to look at how long left there is to run as it can be quite demoralising, but on this run, I couldn’t help but look a couple of minutes from the end.

I go out on Run 3 today. It’s much cooler and duller here today so hoping it will be a bit easier.

Well done again!

It’s very dull here too which surprises me as I thought it was going to be sunny, still warm though.

Good luck with your run!

The dullness lifted here and it’s been sunny and red hot all afternoon 🥵
