Week 9 starts today

[mcl]

And for once I am nervous... 30 mins running. eek!

That's great well done for getting so far. I completed week two run one today and week nine seems a very long way off! How did it go?

[mcl]

Hard!

I think I made it harder by joining my sons for paintball on Sunday. Three hours running around crouched - suffice to say I could feel it this morning.

When I started running my legs already felt tired so it was harder than usual. But I got there in the end.

I think that provided you discipline yourself to breath properly and get a rhythm going, then the rest is will power. At least that is how it works for me!

I am SO pleased I have managed the 30 minutes. I might have been crawling along in places, but I did it

Very well done, especially after a paint ball session! It'll get easier

Bah its rain, thunder & lightning. I will give it an hour and see if I dare venture out. Rain I dont mind... but lightning draw the line at.

I want to keep to my schedule! GAH!

Last week it was thunderstorms and other interference. So I am restarting week 9. In the rain...

I started week 9 today also. I'm really glad it was only a 2 minute difference than last week.

I hope you are having better weather!

My second run is tomorrow and the weather remains very wet. On the bright side, at least it is cool

[pollyester]

No rain here, this week, though I have had a couple rainy days previously. I prefer them to the heat.

A manic work schedule prevented me from a normal running plan - but I completed week 9 on Monday. No rain, nice and cool evening run. I was tired though, and my pace was not what it could be. But I finished so I do not mind at all!

Now I am off for a week and a half holiday before resuming my running. I imagine I will be swimming plenty with my kids.

I cant thank you guys enough for creating this app. Simply wonderful.
