I've had gremlins this week, not sure why. I had an extra rest day and struggled to go this morning, but I said to myself just go anyway and see what happens. I went and was fine. Week 3 done.

That's great, well done! I had a few of those times myself, when I thought having more than one rest day would set me back - but as you found, it doesn't! Just going anyway is the best plan, even if you're worried. Congrats on finishing week 3!

Well done. Overcoming the gremlins is harder than the running itself!

Well done on beating the Gremlins, I'm starting to think that 3/4rs of the battle is mental :-)

Well done! Those gremlins can be such a pain, hanging round, whispering in our ears! Sounds like you did great and told them where to go!
