Bit late with posting again as I finished off W8 yesterday! Thought I’d add the emojis so you didn’t all think I’d had a fall 😂 We’re still trying to get used to people calling it that instead of autumn. The colours are spectacular and intensifying every day and this pic was taken down our road.
So yesterday morning off his nibs went to the driving range, it was in doubt as it had been chucking it down all night, but it stopped just in time. It was about 6 degrees, the coolest I’ve run in so far so I wore a long sleeved top for the first time which felt weird. I went off very carefully being mindful of my ankle but altho’ it’s not 100% it was fine. I found myself going rather faster downhill than I wanted (most unlike me 🐌🐢 ) so reigned it back in as I knew I had the uphill incline on the way back 😬 Felt pretty good overall (except for very cold hands...will be wearing gloves next time!) and amazed again at the increased distance I seem to be covering. The gremlins clearly think they may have more than met their match now as they were rarely present 👺 I just have that amazing feeling now that, although it might not be easy, I know I can do it and finish every run 💪 and Jo says so anyway so why would I disagree 🤷♀️
I haven’t really been paying much attention to distance or speed as my aim is solely to be able to run for 30 minutes and after that for 5k, no matter how long that might take me. But it seems that I covered 5.06 km in 38.20 but that did include the 10 min warm up/warm down walks! Roll on the day when maybe I can run that far in that time 🤞
I’ve so enjoyed catching up on everyone’s progress over the last couple of day so good luck to everyone out there this week 🏃♀️🏃♂️and hope that the weather is kinder to you all than last... I gather from family and friends that it should be. A special shout out to all the current W8/9 crew...we’re nearly there 😆
