Wk7 R3 and a rename!

Hard run this morning, I think it might have something to do with having done a Hiit, weights and circuits session last night - won't make that mistake again! The park was very muddy and to add insult to injury, the app didn't record that I finished the run! So I might just do it again on Monday, can't bear to see a gap in the progress.

I've decided to rename my challenge to: Couch to 2 miles, as so far that is all I've been able to run! Well actually possibly a tiny bit more but I think 5k is a long way off. But I'm happy with that. I'm 61 at the end of the month, never run before although we go cycling (on a tandem with my husband) and I do a fair bit of other exercise mostly cardio and body toning. So I'll join the slow running brigade and just enjoy the scenery - it certainly was a beautiful morning.

Congratulations on your progress so far 👍And remember, running 5k is not a requirement to graduate .

Less than 10% of people in a survey actually achieved 5k in the 30 minutes .

But I guess Couch to running 3x 30 minutes is not such a catchy title 😁

I think my graduation run covered 3.9k 😁

My app stopped working on a cool down walk last week. I just set it going again when I got home and fast forwarded through the sections!
