Week 8 run 1

Just repeated this run because I had a couple of short walks when I first tried it. I found it hard and much warmer than I was expecting as there’s a nice breeze but not enough to keep me from getting very hot. But I kept going and got through it this time without stopping. That last 5 mins seemed to last forever. Looking forward to some yoga stretches in the garden to cool down

Congratulations! Another run in the bag, another milestone achieved - you're a week 8 runner now, those times are getting longer, and you're doing them. If it gets tough, remember the golden rule: go slowly, then slow down.
