Week 7 Finally done

Took a bit longer than I thought due to the extra long breaks between runs but I have finally finished week 7 today :)

Sort of cheated on week 9 as I wanted to see if I could run 30 minutes and just kept going for another 5 minutes. I managed to keep going for the whole time which was just amazing to me :)

As I know I can do it, I will just keep trying to do the 30 minutes for the next 6 runs but try to increase my pace a bit, if I struggle I will slow down.

Oh lost a bit of weight last week which cheered me up and finally put me below the 20st point. Now its been a good long time since I was below 20st.
