Wk4r2

Just back from this run and wow I actually enjoyed it. Could it be that Iโ€™m getting the bug?

I felt like I wasnโ€™t as tired at the end although my hips were killing me, but I didnโ€™t feel as exhausted as I normally do- felt like I found my pace?? Did anyone else find this wk4??

Iโ€™m exited to finish this wk runs on Friday ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

Hope everyone running today enjoys their run as much as I did - itโ€™s hot out there though so keep hydrated ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ

I too did w4r2 this morning, just as the day was dawning. My best exercise pitch is a grassy field at the top of a hillock, so mostly up and down. I kept running for all those 16 minutes, but slightly extended a couple of recovery walks. No concessions on Friday though, and don't tell Laura!

As I'm over 80, I might spend a couple of days building up towards 8 minute runs, as going up from 3 to 5 was something I had to do in stages. I am really looking forward to finishing week 9, but not bothered if it takes a couple of extra weeks to get there.

Yes well done you. Feels good doesnโ€™t it. Wow you are over 80. What an inspiration. I feel the same if I need to repeat runs/weeks I will letโ€™s keep each other going ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ

Well done Ringla - you are an inspiration- just go through the programme at your own pace - a few extra weeks - does it matter - youโ€™ll get there - slow and steady is my mantra ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ‘
