C25K Week 3 Run 2 is done! Felt pretty good, decreased pace to make it feel comfortable.
Other half dropped me 2 miles away so I could run home on a different route whilst he sorted tyre pressures. The result of that is he is now going to get a new tyre as there was something wrong with one of them.

Have a lovely time seeing your son LD

Well run Millsey :-) Sorry the car is needing attention, though better now than on a journey. That sounds a lovely day, LD.

I’ve run, with too much walking, think there’s 3 virtual races this month, maybe they will make me work harder :-)

Well done, Millsey,

2 miles sounds like a lot for week 2! I hope there was a lot of run/walk going on :)

That was including the 5 min walking warm up and 5 min walking warm down ITG 😀 I followed it strictly so just 1.5 mins run/walk x2 and then 2.5 mins run/ walk x 2.

I do not want shin splints again for doing too much too soon 🤦‍♀️ I am tempted however to get a bike as that would be perfect for cross training

Absolutely, Millsey - take it slow. Being injured is miserable.

I have a new workspace in Mr W's office in the loft which is much nicer than working at the dining room table (and I don't have to see Mr W and DD2 sitting around doing nothing ;) )

Welcome to the 700 miles in 2020 thread, everybody welcome. The thread motto is:
'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

At normal times: All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles. Extra points for bins :-) And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.
