Had to fight myself

So hard this morning to make myself get up, dressed and go out. Roads a bit slippery and a bit windy but I went. Started off thinking 7k but legs felt like lead so decided on 6k instead! Managed to complete the run but it was the hardest run I’ve done. I’m now a bit behind bridge to 10k plan but I’ll stick with it and hope to complete by mid April.

Thank you. Yes it’s amazing how a few months ago I couldn’t run and now I’m disappointed with only managing 6k!🤣

Great effort, always hard work when you are having to consider the road conditions so fantastic reaching 6k on icy surfaces. Happy running

You got out and you didn’t feel like it.... that is a huge tick in the training box.... it’s the stuff that makes or breaks runners. Well done 😎👍🏽

The best sense of achievement is when you still run when you didn't want to. You are in charge and if you didn't do as much as you intended, that's still more than you felt like doing. Well done.
