Week 8 Run 1

Well I decided today, after struggling through the 25 min runs last week, to slow up a bit - not that I’m fast, far from it. And I did the 28mins happily and enjoyably. I could have kept going. So overall - happy 😊

Congratulations on running for 28 minutes on run 1 of week 8, not long now until you graduate, you have only 5 more runs.

"I could have kept going"

THAT, sir, is the perfect pace.

Crack on!

It makes all the difference, knowing that you can walk home afterwards without worrying about any niggles you may have otherwise picked up. Well done.
