Up at 5.15 feed the cats, try to wake up a bit, coffee and out . Struggled a bit but 30 minutes done, only 3.5k covered though. Legs feel different after today’s run, like they’ve worked harder and getting stronger. I can’t really explain it. Hmmm. Well 2 days off now, I hope it’s cooler for my 5k on Saturday.

Very impressed at anyone getting up that early! Another one in the tank!

I’m just hoping I don’t nod off in the tedious 2-5 Skype meeting this afternoon

You'd think they'd ease off for home working.... Its Microsoft Teams for us. I plead poor connection and keep mic muted and video off. That way i can roll my eyes and slap my forehead and make rude gestures at people. Makes it a bit more bearable.

I would end up forgetting I’d left the mic/camera on and get caught 😂

Your cats like their breakfast early 🐱🤣

Don't worry about the distance ran , you got up early and it was still warm . Running in the heat can zap your energy. Drink even more when its warm.

Enjoy the rest of your day 🌞🌞

That’s an impressive early run! 😄

I only managed 3.5k in 30 mins yesterday - & although it was hot, my inner 🐌 is really the reason! 😂

I don’t often get much further in 30 mins to be fair

Lockdown training without an eye on competitions medals times etc. Just running to feel good! 👍👍
