WEEK 9 RUN 2

Nearly there. The weather has been vile lately, plus I'm on day shift so I either get up really early to do the run, or do it when I get in from work. Last night I chose to do it after a long day at the Salt mine.

I'm still finding the runs quite hard, and by now I know I'm never going to get anywhere near 5K in 30 minutes, but that's fine, as has been pointed out on here loads of times it's not about the distance. It's getting out there and running for thirty minutes without stopping, and I can do that. Huzzah.

W9R2 is done and dusted, just got to get out there after work on Friday and smash it, the last run on the program, and I'll graduate.

Huzzah!

So close. I’m at the same stage but wasn’t feeling well yesterday so couldn’t tackle that last run. Recovering today and hope to join you, not literally, on W9R3 on Friday. Good luck.
