A good two mile run today

[Oldlady64]

I’ve been working overseas for four days then back to a hectic weekend, so today was my first run for 8-9 days. It’s been such a sunny, beautiful day so I set out with a feeling of spring and a spring in my steps too 😁.

As I passed by lots of walkers quite a few made really encouraging comments, which I am always grateful for! I did just over two miles so am pleased with that. It’ll help me to prepare for the park run on Saturday 🏃‍♀️

Good two miles run for you Oldlady64, well done, isn't it really nice to be encouraged by people you see while you are running, I have had many "well dones" while running in my local park including a "you're doing well" in the same park with 1 kilometre to go when I ran my only half marathon last November.

It really does make a difference when there’s lots of smiles and encouraging words! Yes, some of my runs are through the local park and many people give encouragement!

Fantastic! It’s lovely to get nice comments and smiles. Well done you!

[Oldlady64 in reply to MissUnderstanding]

And thank you, as always, for you being so encouraging!

I lifted my head up when running, after the first positive encouragement, it was a real affirmation! I get quite a lot of " well done fella" now, which for me should normally have the pre-fix 'old'! Glad your getting a pattern of runs going.

I think it’s the same for me …. “Well done (for an old ‘un!)”. I’ll take any encouragement!
