Perfect timing for Week 6 Run 1

just managed to finish before this weather came in 😁

Those pesky intervals!

can't lie, i found that tricky , not sure what it is ?

perhaps it's because you don't pass the 'Toxic 10' so never quite get in your rhythm πŸ˜‘

i was actually ready to walk after each of those runs .

Ah well, it's probably all part of some evil plan haha πŸ˜‚

Anyway it's done and dusted , so far so good and feeling proud to have come this far .

So, two toxic 10 runs to do next time haha πŸ€ͺ

Bring it on !!!

I think you need a bit of a challenge to really feel you’ve achieved. Can’t be having it too easy, now! πŸ˜‚ Well done. Doing my 2 x 10 tomorrow, weather permitting! You certainly were lucky to miss the rain,

Thanks, and good luck for tomorrow (not that you need luck, you'll smash it !) 😁

yes, i was watching the forecast since yesterday and thought i had a window between 10 and 11 so, bowl of porridge with prunes at 8, several glasses of water and out at 10 πŸ˜πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

Thanks, I certainly do need it, especially now I know it’s the longest workout so far! Can’t beat a bowl of porridge, that’s for sure πŸ˜€

The previous one was the longest so far, the 2x10 is slightly less 😊

I found it tough this morning too. I ran in a different place too which probably didn't help!

Well done, you don’t have to go buy newspapers for your trainers today!

You’re progressing so well, keep it up. I aim to be out tomorrow for my 20 minute run.

Enjoy the rest of your day.
