W6R3 - Success!

Yippee! After attempting this run on Tuesday and giving in I did this run today and it was so much better! I didn’t get the mental block to push through as bad, I just slowed down a little at times and I did try to speed up for that last 60 seconds!!

According to Strava it was my quickest average pace yet too so that was a surprise - prob that last few seconds! Shows we really do build on the hard work! When Laura said I’d run for 20mins I had the biggest smile as I knew I could do it, just another 5minutes! The much cooler air probably helped too!

Officially a runner, very slow but I’m so thrilled!

I've also completed the W6R3 today, yes I too slowed at one point but think it was because I was away with the fairies and not thinking about what I was doing. Keep at it. I'll probably go out on Saturday ..... still can't believe I ran for 25 minutes. Good luck and have a good week 7

Thanks, and well done to you too! A milestone to graduation 😃 Think I’ll be more proud of this graduation than my actual degree graduation! 🤣 I’ll be going out on Saturday too as long as legs feel ok, they have done so far!
