Week 8 Run 1 What a feeling!

12 Replies

I had a great run this morning. Nice and steady.

I was actually taken by surprise when I was told I'd finished. I'm hoping the fact that I felt I could have run a bit more will stand me in good stead for next week.

Hope everyone is having as much fun as I am.

I think you can join the Bridge to 10k forum after you graduate. I doubt I will ever run 10k though! I’ve never considered myself as a jogger/runner, I just enjoy being out in the fresh air and exercising at the same time. X

I don't think I'll be doing any more than 5K. I think I'd like to join in a race though, just because! Hopefully as things start returning to normal that might be an opportunity. I love being out in the fresh air too, hence the 4&1/2 mile walk (brisk) every day.
