I think we are at the same stage, Workingathome. I took two days rest too before starting week 9- the last week. Instead of running on the lanes I tried the park. The grass hadn't been cut so it was a matter of running about in the dandelions - very pleasant. There were no hills and that did make a difference. I did not feel tired. I don't know how far it was but I managed the 30minutes. and I'm now' In touch with my inner snail. 'Enjoy the rest of the week.

Oh well done! Week 9 is beckoning you!

I should be doing w9r2 tonight but my knee has been really sore and ‘clicky’ since yesterday so I’m not sure whether to do it or not 😣
