Well I dragged myself out this morning into the cold and dark and managed just short of 3 k but it was hard work πŸ˜“. Not sure why but I might give myself a break til next Friday as I have the grandchildren again this week so I’ll be shattered again . πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ™ƒπŸ™ƒπŸ™ƒ

Well done for getting out there. It's still a run. Not easy in the dark and cold at the moment. Spring is only round the corner. Have fun with your grandchildren. 😊

Its not supposed to be unenjoyable Scruff55. And it sounds like you've got a lot on your plate. I go through phases where I'm not feeling well enough and often have to take a few days off. Its always so much more enjoyable when you put those running shoes back on because you feel like it.

Sometimes a break is all you need Scruff, so treat yourself and enjoy your run on Friday. πŸ₯°

Yes, you'll be back! Enjoy your break with the kids and hopefully have time to anticipate your next run. Do you use the Nike Run Club app? There's a brilliant guided run called the I Don't Wanna Run run. Brilliant! Cheered me up when I didn't wanna runπŸ˜€

Great to get your 3k in before a busy week, I cant believe how exhausting child care, or baby care in my case, can be. Enjoy your time with the little ones then your run towards the end of the week. Happy running πŸ€—

Yes they each have their own rewards but an 8 month old and a 3 year old leave me drained. Hopefully my mojo will be back by Friday πŸ€žπŸ€žπŸ€žπŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„
