Mixing it up

My challenge this week was to vary my runs and avoid the ‘must do 5k or at least 30min’ rut I’d got into. Glad to report I managed it. 😃 One stamina run, one speed run (both with Laura) and one with my fav podcast (no such thing as a fish). A couple of these runs took me close to 5 but I resisted the temptation. 👍🏻 Also because of last night’s rain 🌧 🌧 I took to the pavements today so had no markers to give me clues (again trying to avoid looking at my watch - just run 🏃🏼‍♀️). Ironically I managed to draw blood on a hedge - ironic because I usually run along paths and fields lined by trees and hedges!! Off to Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 for a couple of runs next week and always enjoy that. Bring on variety.

Yes, thank you. Less stress! I’m off to an area I know we’ll and have had some good runs there. It’ll be fun.

Will do as I’m distracted by the scenery. Last time it was leaves 🍁- hope it’s not rain 🌧 this time! 🤞
