Week 7 done

5 Replies

after some extra rest days because I felt unwell I have now completed week 7

run 3 was the best of them all. Felt slower but actually was quicker. Strange. But all good.

6 runs left of the program.

Very good!! I'm one run behind you... Did W7R2 today... I'm glad to hear that R3 was good for you 😊

Great 👍 hope your run 3 goes well. It’s strange I find run 2s the hardest most weeks. Plan to do W8R1 Sunday nice and early.

I was saying exactly the same thing to someone else last week!

Through the whole programme my second runs of the week were the worst because they didn’t have the novelty value of being run one or the excitement of completing a week!

You’re not alone…

Extra rest days when you need them are a really good coaching decision to make! Glad you’re feeling better and congratulations on another week ticked off. Those ticks keep on coming!
