Week 9 Run 3

Mrs R came to support me. Just before the 15 minute mark she called to find out where I was. Then I lost Laura on the app and did a Priti Patel down the phone. I carried on for 3.7 Km going past the 30 minute mark according to my phone and finished with a profuse apology to Mrs R.

My finish line photo was marred by the sunshine in my eyes, and maybe a little bit of tiredness, my having ran further than I have ever done in my life.

Definitely worth a glass of prosecco tonight.

I did it!

But not finished. Back again on Wednesday to start the next stage. Not as a Rennur but as a genuine Runner.

Chuffed to bits ( and Everton won.)

I like the bit about shouting down the phone like Priti Patel.

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 9 and graduating from C25K, well done

An Everton supporter in London SW16, whatever next? 😉

(The street sign is the big clue. The Google StreetView photo of that street taken in April last year shows a guy in a white vest running past the camera car.)

Oh, yes! Congratulations! 🏃‍♂🍾🏆🏅

I moved daarrn saaarrf when I was 10. Too old to change teams. My son has never been to Goodison but is a Toffee, and I did not encourage him.Good thing is he has started C25K now so I may see how he's doing when he's back fro Uni next month.
