The end of interval running!

Finished week 6 with the dreaded 25minute run and found it ok actually. Took 5 or so minutes to settle into a rhythm but after that really pleased with how things went. Over the last couple of weeks I've found stopping and starting running harder than the actual running which I think shows the progress I've made. Although I knew what Laura was going to say at the end of the podcast I still found it hugely motivating to be called a 'proper runner'. A few pins and needles in my right foot during the warm down again but went off after 5 minutes or so and felt a real sense of achievement. Bring on week 7!

Well done. I have that one tomorrow. I'll be glad to say good bye to the intervals as I've found them really hard this week. Look us runners... Lol
