Well here I am. A runner. Who’d a thought it!

And I put a spurt on for the last minute. Well when I say spurt I mean slightly faster. Well when I say slightly faster I mean a little bit faster. But a a little bit faster is still a little bit faster. I still has gas in the tank! W7 bring it on. πŸ˜€πŸ’ͺ🐌

Speed is relative........so faster is faster, regardless.

Well done you.

That's amazing well done! Still having gas in the tank is a great sign for the next week which I bet you will really enjoy. I've just finished week 7 and cannot believe a little fatty like me who only ever ran to the fridge for more wine is enjoying this running m'larky so much. Good luck for week 7. You are doing brilliantly and you are now a RUNNER!!!

Congratulations on doing week 7. I am looking forward to it now. It’s very odd but I couldn’t get out and run in the heat and I missed it. I am determined to finish and then carry on.

Good luck with week 8! Let’s keep at it. πŸ˜€πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ’ͺ🐌

I know exactly what you mean!! I wouldn't run in the heat so had to run yesterday in a monsoon. I wouldn't normally out my head out of the door in the rain but thought I had better get out or might lose my mojo and found that I now absolutely LOVE running in the rain!! Who knew!!!?? Look at us turning into runners :D

Great running... and it doesn’t matter how much faster 🀣 it’s all about that other bit you mentioned, you had some in the tank... you’re fitter than the run you face! Enjoy week 7, it’s perfect for official runners!
