Day 1, Half Marathon training 😉

An easy 30 minute run for day 1, so to go even easier on my legs, decided to run on grass at my local playung fields! More like a cross country slosh, lots of fun and after the first puddle flowed into my shoes and socks, might as well keep going! Not sure my socks will ever recover!

Trainers cleaned ok, showered mud off my legs but not sure rhe socks will survive! Once I had wet feet just carried on! 😳

When you were a kid you'd get told off for wrecking your socks playing in mud. As a runner, it's a badge of honour! Well done Joolie, you're training has got off to a great start ;)

U r right! I was never allowed to get dirty as a child, in fact fun wasn't encouraged! Now at 52 since discovering running, it has been so rebellious and I am having a wonderful time, very thankful I am healthy enough to do it when many cant!
