Pain is only temporary.....

[Beads]

That's what Alex was saying to me from her bike as I sped up (slightly) for the last minute of W8R1 (!!!!!!). It was the hardest run so far, all the way round, not just towards the end. But I made it! Also the furthest I've run time-wise and distance-wise - cracked the 4Km mark (just)! I'm looking forward to getting round the aerodrome twice so I don't get the long walk back.

Great job beads!!!!! You must be keeping a great pace to be at 4km! I'm in week 8 also, doing run 3 later tonight. Can you believe we only have 1 more week?

Pain is only temporary but the joy of being in week 8 lasts a little longer. Week 8. Oh. My. Word! Look at us!

Alex...on a bike???? I think I would let the air out of those tires!! Week 8!! Right on!!! Only one more week and it appears that there will be a pretty good graduating class!! I look forward to getting "badged" with you!!

Alex used to run, but damaged her knee so isn't at the moment. She's up there prodding us with a big stick to keep us going!
