Hey Runners

Early morning start! We’re off to Guernsey!! 🇬🇬 So morning run not a possibility. Delayed trains and flight! Great! But used to that now! 🤪 Arrived at work get down to business! It’s been a beautiful hot day here. 23 degrees! 🏝 (It was good during my travel too).

Rain is forecast later and I’m actually looking forward to that early evening run in the rain! 🌧 🏃🏾‍♀️ 😁! But early evening becomes late evening as I leave work very late due to an unplanned meeting! So, what do I do now? I arrive at the hotel in the dark! I can try to go out and hope it’s not that bad or just give myself a break! But I’m actually feeling good, despite the long day.

So, I get my kit on and off I go! I’m doing a 10 minute (yes...10 mins) guided run in the dark using my phone torch to light up the ground as I go. I’m also carrying my portable battery charger plugged into the phone, as I only had 15% charge. Oh...don’t forget the hotel key!! I’m packing!! 💼 Is that going to stop me? H...to..the...N! 😂

I’m using that flexibility skill that I’ve built up during this programme and improvising. 🤣🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽! And you know, that really does feel good! 😀 Knowing how easy it would have been not to bother, but wanting to run and doing it! 💪🏽

10 minutes with the phone torch 🔦 is better than none!! Now it’s time to turn the torch off and get washed up for dinner! 1.39k in 10 mins is a win for me today!! And today is all that matters!! I got my running groove on for a little bit at least! 🙌🏽🙌🏽😍

Happy running Runners! ❤️
