Week 7 run 1 - tough but completed

Found this run hard going- maybe as I was out in the middle of the day. I don’t know - there are many factors that influence how you run - but I kept going as Jo told me. Nothing left for that final 60 secs sprint though 🥵🥵 - maybe the next run - onwards we go 🏃🏼‍♀️😊

Go us 🐌!!! We’ve ticked off another one. Can’t believe how far we’ve all come on this journey to a fitter us !!

Yes I prefer first thing in the morning couldn’t do it later in the day !!

Plus once it’s done I feel virtuous all day 🤣

Yes I think I prefer first thing in the morning- I know exactly what you mean - very smug all day 😀

Well done! I think week 7 is a tough one. I struggled with it last week and I've read a few posts along the same lines. So many factors can also affect it, like you said. Funny how we're all different. I struggled last week with the first two runs of week 7, when I was going out early morning to avoid the heat. Run 3 and today (w8r1), I went back to my usual midmorning run and I thoroughly enjoyed them! Good luck with your next run 👍💪🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️
