Week 8 Run 3

Well week 8 completed felt really slow this morning but was actually quicker than my last run so I was really surprised. Week 9 left to do and I’m proud of myself for not giving up at the first hurdle and persevering with it. I’m not the best runner and I never will be and I’m certainly not the quickest infact I’m quite slow but it’s all about getting round and completing the run!!

Yay only three runs left! 🥳🥳

You're not alone, a lot of us are slow runners but it's all about challenging ourselves and getting fitter and stronger - at our own pace 🐌👀

Best of luck next week! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

It’s going to take me longer than a week as I have to leave longer between runs to avoid injury unfortunately 😕

However long it takes, the main thing is to get there safely 🙂
