Nearly week 9 run 3

Bit disappointed, should have finished C25K today, the weather had other ideas. Cold and wet, slippery under foot and I can’t risk another fall so took to the treadmill. Keep fingers crossed for a dry run on Monday and then I’ll consider it a successful conclusion. By the way, thanks for all those who gave advice on slowing down, it really does work.

Definitely better to err on the side of caution - although if you can do it on the treadmill that definitely counts.

Hope the weather is kind for the next ones.

Not worth the risk of an injury so good call. How long did you do on the treadmill?

Hi, I still do the 30 minutes, with it set at 3 degrees, that feels about the same as running outside. Cheers
