Where did February go?

I realised my last 5k was 1st Feb! I've been faffing around, I'm good at that! So I did Coach Bennett's ♥️ Another 5k Run this morning. It was cold and grey (not like the last couple of mornings) and I did the scenic route over the estuary bridge, blimey it was windy! But it was such a lovely plod and I felt sooo much better for it (head has been in negative place). I do love this plodding malarky and so looking forward to birdsong filled early mornings. Happy running week everyone 😊

Hey Blossom sounds idyllic except for the wind which I hate. Good to get another 5k done. Plodding is defo the way forward, quite enjoying it myself. 😁

Hi Blossom! Great to hear you got out and ran a 5k. Well done! Sometimes it seems such an effort to get out, but it's always worth it in the end isn't it!

I still feel slightly nervous just before I leave the house, thinking I can't do this, but I've realised that telling myself it's OK to go slow, plod, walk or even stop if I need to, gives me the confidence to start.

Happy running!

😍😍😍

Thanks! Yes I feel a bit scared sometimes too. Weird isn't it. But this morning I didn't and just made myself go real slow. On a run last week I had to walk (hills) and I really beat myself up. But my route this morning was pretty flat and easy so while I did have to stop to cross roads and give way to toddlers on bikes it was so much easier, and not a bad time too, for me! Enjoy your week☺️
