That was so tough the wind was dreadful. Felt I was stopping not going forward !! But 30 mins done proving I will go out in bad weather !! Proud of myself even though my time was much slower. I definitely flagged towards the end. Might try timing my jog alone and not include the walks.

I certainly stuck with Jo don’t want to loose her just yet.

My inner 🐌 is very happy.

Well done. I think there may be a psychological impact of reaching and going beyond milestones. For me every week completed is a great milestone and the next run is harder. So maybe that’s why today felt hard for you. Massive milestone last run tick so next run harder. Or maybe just the wind. Whatever,well done still fab to be a runner. 👍😀👏

See you're a proper runner now going out in all weathers 😁 I'm finding that it's good just to run for the sake of it, I'm forgetting about speed and distance at the moment, though still happily embracing my inner 🐌

Well done! I started timing just my runs W9 R1 with MapMyRun, just makes it easier to know how far you’ve actually run without working it out after!

Not what you're looking for?
