W8R1 Best. Run. Ever! :)

The weather was perfect - sunny, bright but with a cool breeze. Honestly, I've never felt so good running. This plan is magical. I never thought I'd be saying I loved running for 28 minutes! I actually had another 3 or 4 minutes in the tank at the end, ran further than I have before and really, really enjoyed it.

My run was helped today by two pacesetters - a rabbit, who ran in front of me up the lane for around a minute before disappearing into the field and when I reached the final five minutes, a hare ran towards me, turned, ran up the road in front of me and then ran into the field. It was honestly as if they were there cheering me on. I had such a wide smile as I ran. I'm sure nobody will believe me but it's true.

To those who doubt - you can do this. If I can do it, anyone can. Enjoy your Sunday everyone

So glad you enjoyed your run. Thank you for the encouragement. I did W2R1 today and on the second 90 sec run my brain was encouraging me to stop. After that I was fine but nervous for future runs. I didn't have a rabbit or a hare cheering me on but I did hear some lambs. Sounded like they were laughing 😀

Don't be nervous. The thing is, it is only your brain trying to say you can't do it. Your body knows it can. Just ignore that voice because you can do it. And the lambs were not laughing, they were definitely cheering! Besides, you don't want the Silence of the Lambs 😜
