Finally Back to It - W9 R1 in a Storm ✅

W9 R1 is complete!! 😊

A week exactly since completing week 8, I eventually got back out earlier to complete W9 R1 🙌🙌

Having had a niggle evolve into a full blown ‘minor injury’ after last Saturday’s W8 R3, I took a full week off to rest it and ice it so that I could run week 9 and beyond. Despite it being a terrible week (because I missed running), I am glad I invested that time now as my run today was grand. Nothing amazing, but my worry that I’d struggle after the week ‘off’ was unfounded thankfully!

Delighted week 9 has been started! Today should’ve been my graduation day but not to be.

I did however find a new route to run which was lovely, and managed to find this lovely few minutes of sunshine in the middle of the storm!

Happy Halloween! 🎃👻

Fantastic news PA - I'm glad you're back out there and had a good run 👍 Gives me hope that I will eventually make it off the injury bench.

I'm sure you'll smash the last two runs now 🙌💪

Thanks SD! There’s hope, it was a rough week and I wanted to go out numerous times but was convinced long term it wasn’t a good plan.

How is your injury?

I’ll still be giving it an extra day in between the last two so you never know we could be done around the same time!

Not what you're looking for?
