Was not impressed with the 1st attempt on Friday so rather than go on to W7 i was determined to do better this time. This turned out to be a much better run no stopping and no stitch,i still fouw7nd it tough going but i got there. Also discovered leaving water bottle home was a good thing as until today i didn't realise how much easier it was to run without it. Here i come Week 7!

Well done, you nailed it, 7ermintrude! On to W7. I don't take water out with me, can imagine how distracting it must be - tried running with a (small, light) bag the other day as I was late for something, it wasn't an official run which was just as well as I found it virtually impossible to run properly.

Well done 7ermintrude. I don't take water out either. I have a Garmin on one arm and an ipod on the other - don't think I could cope with anything else! Good luck with week 7. Hope it goes well for you. :)

Forgot to mention i spent the 1st ten minutes pulling my shorts up.. i may have lost some weight and they only stay up when i start sweating ( i like to share)..Must go buy new shorts

I had that with a bra strap a couple of weeks ago, it kept coming down until the sweat stuck it to my shoulder (you're not the only one who likes to share :) )

Great job! Week 7 here you come! Maybe you should celebrate in purchasing new running shorts before you share to much with the other runners out and about! :-) great going and welcome to week 7!
