Wasn’t nearly as bad as I was expecting! I headed all the advice, drank plenty of water, stretched before and after and ran slowly! In fact so slowly that I’m sure my brisk walking was faster than my β€˜running’ πŸ˜‚

Onto R2 on Friday πŸ’ͺ

Brilliant!!! You are doing amazingly well. I found week2 run1 really hard! The rest were much better though. Enjoy the rest to Friday.

I’m with you on the feeling that my brisk walking pace is faster than my β€œruns” πŸŒπŸ˜‚

W2R3 planned for Friday...weather permitting 🀞

Maybe both our runs on Friday will be a tiny bit faster.... maybe tortoise pace 🐒 πŸ˜‚ But seriously, as we know, we shouldn’t worry about speed, and I truly don’t, it’s more important that we keep going and complete the run πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ Good luck on Friday 🀞

I don't think it's ever as bad as we imagine... like most things in life. I have to think of running as something I want to do, not that I have to.

Good luck with the next few weeks... and hopefully more πŸƒπŸ˜Š
