I will hopefully be on Week 3 of the 5-10k plan next week. Struggling sometimes in the week as I’m tired from work. Trying to make a conscious effort to get to bed earlier. 😴

Work really gets in the way of running doesn’t it?

Harder when it’s dark earlier in the evening’s too.

Certainly is

In the weekend I run 2 hours after breakfast. But on weekdays I run after work too. It is much harder and those gremlins often whisper to just skip it that day...

Bloomin’ work eh!!! I go to bed at 9pm on the dot which means I can get up really early to run or go to the gym. It takes a bit of practice but it’s really worth it and means I don’t talk myself out of running after work. I treated myself and went to bed at 10 last night - it was Friday after all 🤣.

I can’t go early in the morning now as I start work too early! I need to make sure I go to bed earlier though. 😀
