Fabulous450 & It’s Got To Be Done Run! 🏃🏽‍♀️ ✅

[Fabulous450]

Hi Runners

What a week this has been. My August Quest to run 3 times this week was hampered by the sweltering weather, but mostly hampered by a bathroom DIY project 🛁 (that was seriously underestimated 🥴 ☺️).

I had to delay this weeks run No.2 (which I had hoped to do on Friday 🙄). And I was STILL doing the bathroom yesterday and all day today🤦🏽‍♀️. My body has been definitely been through a lot 😂!

No more DIY!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 And a run had to be done to celebrate 🤩! I did a 10 minute warm up walk first because I wasn’t sure how my body would feel, then a ‘benchmark’ run! 7 minutes warm up, 3 minutes of ‘all out running’, 5 minutes cool down!! 😎

Finally getting out there today, felt fantastic 😁! But, I was very mindful of the amount of work that I had already put my body through all week! When my coach said “go..go...go”! Well...let’s just say, there was no surge 😂! I just didn’t have it in me, but that’s ok. I was just glad to be out for a little while.

Time for that lovely soak now!! 💥🙌🏽🤩

Happy running Runners! ❤️

Thanks so much! 🤗 Not anymore! A challenge it certainly was, but it has been completed! 🤩🤩❤️

Great run for you after all your hard diy. Well done for getting out. Happy running 🤗

Thanks so much Grannyhugs!! 🤗 I was glad to get outside again! 😂❤️

I’m not surprised! All that DIYing must’ve really taken it out of you! Good on you for getting out, it really helps to escape when you’re trapped in a project like that.

Hope you had a wonderful soak xx

Thanks so much TailChaser! 🤗 It was meant to take a couple of days at most. But then, with all the filling waiting, sanding and mask taping it took FOREVER! 🙄

I did have lovely soak with bath salts!! I never want to do any DIY ever...ever... (Did I say ‘ever’?) again.

I do say that after every project I take on though. 😂😂❤️

[TailChaser Graduate10 in reply to Fabulous450]

Me too! They seem to take longer and longer every time! The worse thing is you spend most of it doing prep and it’s only that final bit that everyone else appreciates. Bet it all looks great now though 😊🤗x

[Fabulous450 Graduate10 in reply to TailChaser]

Oh I know you get it TailChaser!! 😉 Spot on!!

But, yes I’m very proud of my achievement. It looks amazing! If it didn’t take me so long, I’d swear it was my calling! 😂😂❤️

You did well to get out there at all Fab, bathroom DIY is especially fraught. Well done 👍

[Fabulous450 Graduate10 in reply to lexi6]

Thanks so much Lexi6! 🤗 Getting out there this evening was the first thing I thought of.

I was slightly miffed by how long it took! Talk about the never ending story! And of course my quest was broken by it too! So, it was a rebellious run, that’s for sure. Slow 🐌 ....but rebellious! 😂❤️

Well done for getting out there in the end! And now a gleaming bathroom to soak in afterwards!!

[Fabulous450 Graduate10 in reply to Fionamags]

Thanks so much!! 🤗 Oh it was lovely coming home and seeing it all done Fionamags!! Kind of (very) proud of myself!! I did that!! 😯😃❤️

A run followed by a soak in thenewlydone bathroom? Double bliss 👍

[Fabulous450 Graduate10 in reply to BaddieThePirate]

Thanks so much BTP!! 🤗 I would definitely not have decided to do it and for some time I had tried to get someone in and everyone was busy or didn’t show up. So, my hand was forced, but it was quite an achievement in the end. 🤩😁❤️
