Week 9 - 2/3rds down, staring graduation in the face!

Hi - did week 9, run 2 yesterday evening after work. As predicted I did find it hard going - not being able to see the garden as I run on the treadmill does have an impact and I did find my eyes straying towards the timer once or twice!

Still all done and boy did it feel good afterwards - although less good today - can really feel my legs and hips!

Looking forward to my graduation run on Saturday - fingers crossed nothing will stop me doing it. Soooooo want my green badge now! :)

Well done! I use the treadmill too and used to always look at the timer and it makes it so much harder! I now just tune into my music and switch the timer part off so I don't know and I decide, 3 more songs (or whatever) and I'll check my time. I only check when I know I've listened to a good few songs that I know take me to about 30 minutes, then I know I've not got long to go! Good luck for Saturday
