Fabulous450 Move for Mind Challenge 13 -19 May - Day 1 Complete 🏃🏽‍♀️ ❤️

[Fabulous450]

Hi Runners

I registered for a Move for Mind Challenge to support this very worthy cause and to support myself in getting back into a routine of running.

There is no doubt that running is great for the mind and the body. However, sometimes what you need the most is the hardest thing to do. 🙃Thankfully I’ve only experienced the blues temporarily, but it’s hard to get out there when life feels like one challenge after another and the solutions are not so quick to find.

So, I’m running and walking on alternate days this week in honour and support for those who have had very difficult experiences with mental health and their families. I know from personal experience that it’s heartbreaking to see someone go through these challenges.

I’m still running happy and doing my bit for an amazing cause!!

Day 1 complete! 💪🏽 Happy running Runners! 😁😁❤️

Thank you BTP!! This will be W3 of consistent running by the end of the week. Feeling stronger motivation again after every run now too. ❤️

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10 in reply to Fabulous450]

Gosh, that's good going. Not sure I could do it every day!

[SaskAlliecat Graduate10]

What a great challenge and it will help you to get that running routine firmly ingrained by the end of it. I know running does a world of good to lift my mood and get through the tough times.

Thank you so much Cheeky! It’s getting hot out there again. Glad I got out early. ❤️

Yes, like during our C25K days during the heatwave! 🥵🥵🥵

[Fabulous450 Graduate10 in reply to cheekychipmunks]

Definitely have to be careful what I’m putting on for the next run. 😂😂! As long as everything stays in place, it will be nice to run in the sunshine. ❤️

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10 in reply to Fabulous450]

Absolutely! I need to triple make sure I don’t get a bra malfunction like I did during the winter - at least I had a jacket to cover the ladies!! No jacket in the summer. 😳😅😩

[Fabulous450 Graduate10 in reply to cheekychipmunks]

😂! Got to be careful now! 🤓❤️

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10 in reply to Fabulous450]

Most definitely! 😅😅😅

Never better thanks. Still running but i only do 5k ever other day. It keeps the belly monster 👾 away, 😀.
