Well I cant believe the end is in sight.

Week9 run 1.

Have actually been excited about starting this week.

Came home from work then straight out of the door.

Changed my route to avoid mega mud (its been persistently raining on and off) so today was my first real road shuffle

Went like a dream. Turned back to home after the halfway bell and for some unexplained reason shed a tear. 😢It certainly wasnt the music. You cant stop the beat -hairspray🤣

Anyway. Roll on Thursday for w9 run2

Hope the tears stay away x

It’s emotional... it’s a journey ... and you can smell the virtual finish line 🏁😭

I cried too... as did lots of others!

Most of all ... it’s such a fantastic achievement

Well done! 👏👏👏

I was really looking forward to Run 1 Wk 9, had a good run2 and then was really worried i wouldn't be able to complete run 3. But I did it. As Sanj told me a few weeks ago: you have trained for this; have faith in the programme; you CAN do it. I graduated (on Sunday) and so will you :)
