Man I'm slack at reporting on this. I'll explain why in a bit.
Session 2 - 43 min. Run 10 minutes. Walk 1 minute. Do this 3 times.
Session 3 - 52 min. Run 15 minutes. Walk 1 minute. Run 15 minutes. Walk 1 minute. Run 10 minutes.
So session 2 was fine. It was short, it didn't leave me feeling invigorated, it just was. It was cold though. Session 3 I did today and I attempted to run up Gas Hill again. I failed. I'm basically lazy. I'm sick and tired of running now and I'm a bit sulky that I still have to do it. It was OK earlier on in the programme because I knew I had to raise money and I knew that I had a long way to go to improve. Now I'm pretty certain that I can run the 10k and I'm fed up of training. And I've exceeded my fundraising target. I'm also probably not going to be able to do sessions 1 and 2 of the final week's training because I'm away with work, so I'm grumpy about that too. Perhaps I'll manage session 1 tomorrow before I go to work.
Today it was bloody cold outside and running didn't really warm me up that much. Perhaps I should have run faster. Running in the cold is horrible because I get cold nipples. That is no fun. Ugh. Perhaps I should take a hoody out with me tomorrow morning.
£161 from some amazing sponsors.
Total: £215
Gift aid: £40.25
Total including gift aid: £255.25 And yaayyyyy I've exceeded my target! Thank you all ! So pleased!

$20 from an American (about £12.41 I think). So I think that's about £267. Aces! Amazing aces!
I have also been told that Americans can't donate through my fundraising page on my donate, but ASN have improved their Donate pages: https://www.abortionsupport.org.uk/support-us/donate/ - and now you can pay by paypal or by standing order. Please consider donating.
Finally, the my donate site is a bit broken so I can't update the total funds on there. It should be fixed tomorrow so I'll try to update it then.
it sounds like you're doing great in your couch to 10k challenge, keep it up :)
