Didn’t finish work until late last night and didn’t sleep great but had been looking forward to getting out so decided if I woke up in enough time before kids swimming I’d head out.
Wide awake just before seven so off I went. Classic rock station on amazon prime (unusual for me as I normally prefer spoken word podcasts), headed off on a new route at what has become my “keep on running pace”.
Thought I’d see where it got me and before I knew it I was at 8k and still trotting along happily. It seemed rude not to by that stage so I kept on going to my first 10K.
Just what I needed to set me up for a relaxing weekend and put the stresses of the week away.

Definitely. I’m also finding it quite amazing that I actually skipped having a beer last night because I wanted to be in good shape for running. Might make up for it tonight though 😀
Well done for your 10k. It looks a lovely route too.
Fantastic! Well done you! On my longer runs, one of my mantras towards the end is 'I can always run another 2k'😮. I think when you hit 8 (sensibly) then 10 is not far off - as you have proved! What a great start to the weekend for you!🙂
