Good morning

Thought you might appreciate this.

Still amazes me that at the beginning of the year struggled to run 30 seconds now slowly but surely building up yesterdays long run built to 7.5k.

So happy about what achieved so far but excited about what comes next!!

For now I’m staying consistent with my 3 runs and just pushing a little once a week with those distances.

Have a great day everyone xx

Oh that’s lovely CDL. ❤️ Even got me a little choked up (get a grip woman!)

I’ve literally just finished a lovely 5k bumble with my dog. It’s so wonderful having running in our lives isn’t it?

You’re doing everything right, taking it steadily. 10k will be yours for the taking before you know it! 👏👍🏃‍♀️

😂😂 i’ve fine the same burst into tears listening to someone else talk about the benefits of running on a podcast, I also thought the same get a grip woman 🤣

Thank you so much, I’d tried to be technical with it but just took it to running a little more each long run, noting a milestone bit more next week.

How lovely a run with your dog, two of favourite things in one ☺️

I think your approach is absolutely right crazy. There is a lot more to running than just running!! I have had huge lessons in patience, persistence and not beating myself up over my limitations - all beautifully captured in your post 😊
