Better run today!

Hi

After my disastrous attempt at my 1st consolidation run on Monday, today was much better. Only did 25 minutes but that included a steep uphill climb and a few aborted attempts at getting used to Garmin coach, bring back Sanjeev! I will be back on the C25K app on Friday but at least now I feel I will still be able to do my 30 minutes. Hayfever has started but that is a small price to pay for all the beautiful gorse and buds on tress and the sun is shining brightly in the sky! I feel blessed in amongst all the chaos and confusion. I'm back!

Well done and remember, to those of us new to C25K, your “only did 25 minutes including an uphill climb” seems bloody amazing!😀👏👏

Keep it up

Thank you Whitto it’s amazing how far we come in such a short time! I only managed 5 minutes on Monday as I stupidly thought that after graduating I could run as fast and far as Paula Radcliffe!!

Sounds like something I would do!😀

Give it six months and you’ll be leaving Paula behind!

That’s great Phdgranny, what a blessing some of us at least have these beautiful Spring days in the UK to soften our adjustment to the new normal.....for now anyway, so glad you had a better run today and that you are back 😀
