W4 R3 ...

[spongecat]

Well I did my 3rd run of W4 today......in a steady downpour. It was lovely compared to the past sweltering days!

I'm still a bit shocked how I'm doing this. Sometimes I have a doubt in the back of my mind that I'm going come to a stuttering halt but my playlist keeps me going! Day off tomorrow and some weights work on Monday and back into W5 on Tuesday. I'm not going to peep just do what is asked, hopefully.

Congratulations to all who have graduated in the past several days too...in the heat. Wow!

Hey that’s good, sounds like you are doing well and enjoying it, week 4 was the hardest for me and i totally loved week 5

everyone is different and if you take it at your pace you will soon graduate

Thank you! I'm also having just as much fun running my old favourite walking routes again. Some I'm steering clear of for now because there are some steep gradients on the cliffs and some lanes are a bit up hill and down dale but I will leave those until fitness increases! It's such a shame that so many lanes around here have no verge or pavement, too dangerous to run in the road!

Yes you have to be careful on roads, and hills are tough

We have run some favourite walking routes too and been surprised at how quickly we get somewhere, running is much more fun than walking

Great work so far 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. I think W5 is where you really take off and begin to believe for the first time that you just might do it! Keep going! 🏃‍♀️
