Half a step back onto the bridge

[grumpyoldgirl]

I'm driving off to Wales soon to see family, so I sneaked out for my second 5k run of the week before I get into the car. Pretty sure I won't get a run in until I get back. I planned 5k out and back, but felt good so kept going for a massive extra half k. It's not much, but it's more than I've managed since I fell off the bridge (due to illness, not literally!) a couple of months ago. So, I think I'll start the magic plan again next week! Woohoo! Oh, and shout out to cheekychipmunk, your fab 18k report encouraged me out of the door today 🤗

Glad you are still getting out there and slowly building up grumps. You will soon be clocking up the Ks!!😊

Oh I hope so BC, it feels a bit one step forward two steps back sometimes, but it's still five and a half k further than I was running eighteen months ago!

[Beachcomber66 Graduate10 in reply to grumpyoldgirl]

Exactly! I will fund out on Saturday whether I have emerged from yesterday’s effort unscathed. We just do what we can and enjoy that 😊😊

I had to just get out quickly before I had a chance to think about it, seemed to work. Couldn't go out when it was super hot 🌞

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to grumpyoldgirl]

you got out, that's what counts

Well done on getting out there and achieving a 5K plus. You spurred me on to do use the spare 15 minutes I had to go for a quick run

Well done girl, glad you made it out there!

Woohoo well done! Mentally we have these milestones of distance or time in our heads and when you are tired it’s easy to sort of collapse over ‘the line’ and finish. To carry on, even for a short distance, means something!

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10]

Yay GOG, glad I was able to get you out there! Very well done. 👏👏👏

Enjoy your time in Wales, and you’ll have the Magic 10 to look forward to again on your return! 👍🏃‍♀️👏

Thanks cheeky, hopefully I'll get a bit further this time 🤞

So glad you didn’t literally fall of the bridge. 😂 That shows determination to get out for a run before your hols. Have a nice time. The magic plan will be waiting for you.
