Magic 10k Week 1 Run 1 completed

Target - 5.5km or 35mins

Actual - 6Km in 30mins

As ever, the hardest part was getting out the door. A long hard weekend at work followed by children who didn't want to go to bed, meant I crashed out and fell asleep at 7.30pm tonight, only to be woken by my 1yr old deciding 8.30pm wasn't her bedtime! (She's right of course, 7pm was!)

Determined to get my first run in this weekend I finally got her to nod off, got my trainers on and headed out into the rain at 9.30pm, and suddenly all my cares faded away, well, washed away might be better word for it!

Definitely the best way to end what's been a tough old weekend, even if I am now soaking wet and wide awake and oh so very conscious of having to be at work again at 0530 tomorrow morning 🙈

Wow! That’s some commitment! Well done and keep it up. I loved the Magic Plan so much I started it all over again immediately.

Remember to look after yourself in other ways, too. Sleep, eat well, laugh, love and then get back out there pounding the pavement (or wherever). X

Your 1yr old made me laugh, sure they were just waking you so you'd get run 1 in. Cracking time there.
