Week 8....

[Smellimelli]

Hi guys. I have been unwell since Friday with a bad cold ... I've only just managed to get off the sofa let alone run ... Was supposed to have started week 8 on Monday but that didn't happen. And yesterday I felt a little better and decided I wasn't going to let this get me and throw me off ! One missed run leads to 2 and so on so forth ... I wasn't having that happen after all my hard work. So I manned up and thought how ever far I get ill b happy ... I guess deep down I need that once I was out there was no way I would let myself only do 10 minutes or 20 or 25..... After first minute I seriously thought I would have to give up but I kept chanting damn u cold and come on man up Mel we can do this and I done it. Week 8 run 1 was completed !! My first ever 28 minutes of running 🎉🎉🎉 was a few seconds slower than same distance last week but I don't care. I got up off my butt and went out that's good enough for me.

Ah happy days ! Even in the depths of despair there is hope. Ha ha. Feel better for that don't you! Way to go Melli!

I hope that cold will be kicked into touch soon. Take care!
