5K in the sun 😎

I got up and put on my running gear, inspired by lexi6 telling me she was going out for a run. It was clear blue sky. No excuse not to. Except my phone needed charging for Runkeeper. So I did a couple of hours work while my phone charged, wondering if I would actually run...

Well I did. 5km. Thank you Lexi6. Slow and easy, huff, puff, huff, puff. Rain and snow forecast in the next few days πŸ˜¬πŸ™„

I keep posting on B210K, hoping that will motivate me to gear up again. Eventually...

I am sure you will gear up as soon as the weather improves Baddie. It has been bad enough down here with rain but you have had ice, snow and lots of mud. So you just do what you can.

I will have to check out Lexi’s post too.

Yes I do like a bit of sunshine too. Out in the rain this morning and decided 4k was enough.

Good for you Baddie. Especially good after having to wait for your phone to charge - that’s great willpower! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

I think anyone who has stepped out the door in the past few months deserves a medal! The weather/temperature has certainly had an affect on my run effort - and my mood. No doubt some more clear blue skies will help with that mojo β˜€οΈ

Nice one Baddie! And you had sun as well, lucky you!

Maybe you'll find your mojo somewhere downstream? Happy running!

I'm only doing slow 5k's at the moment. Although Mondays on the Middlewood Way are a bit faster

I’m only doing slow. It’s all I’m capable of right now!

Slow is good - i have to say that because I'm the slowest I've ever been 🀣🀣. You're getting out there though, that's the best thing!

You found some sun! β˜€οΈ Every run (or walk, or shuffle, ahem!) is a good run at the moment, it seems to me that there's a national shortage of mojo right now. Probably held up at Dover πŸ€” Keep going baddie, we'll get through it πŸ€—

Yes, it’s low mojo season.
