Wk 8 Run 3 First day out in leggings

Today was the first day since I started that it has not been raining and the temperature was 10c with some sun and wind. Perfect day to break out the new leggings and feel like a real runner. Quite tired at the end and not sure how the last 2 minutes extra will feel in Week 9. I did travel a little further, 3.16km from 3.12km last time if gadgets and GPS can be trusted. ;-) Dry feet were a bonus.

Well done coolfemme! You look great in those leggings 😀. Love the jacket too. Congratulations on completing the last week 8 run, we’re at exactly the same run. Yes, will be interesting to see how half an hour treats us. Best of luck! 🏃‍♀️

Well done coolfemme, don’t worry about those 2 extra minutes, imagine those as just half a song on your playlist. You look like a real runner because you are a real runner, week 9 has arrived and graduation is now in sight 🏅👀👍🏃‍♀️
