So much better than Sunday and after working in the office all day as well. Breathing and lung capacity feel so much better and wasn’t half as bad as I thought it would be 🤪

That’s the benefit of all those other weeks’ runs being banked by you. Great job TT close to that podium now

Definitely! I’m enviously looking at the weather!

Tomorrow is a full day of work for me, but my next run is the day after tomorrow and I can’t wait! In my training plan it will be the penultimate run! Being so close to the finish is exhilarating, isn’t it?

Well done!

Taking each run as it comes, easing back if need be and letting the run take you... just try not to over think the runs ahead... you are ready for each and everyone..

Enjoyment not endurance , delight not dread. You are on the way to that podium !

Well done you!

We can run with no hills, but there will always be ups and downs. Here's to more ups! Metaphorically speaking of course.

Not what you're looking for?
