Sooooo tempted to cheat and run tonight ..... Great run reports from all πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€ but I'll stick to the 'rules' rest day today and graduation at Parkrun tomorrow.

Well done everyone, leave a little space for me on the podium, I'll be there soon πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸΎπŸΎπŸΎπŸΎπŸΎπŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•

NOT taking rest days is a bit like Jaywalking - or crossing a road against a red light. You might be able to get away with it for a long time- but on just one day you won't, and that one day will mess everything right up!!! :)

I know you're right .... It's just hard when it's so close and there's a mass graduation today. πŸ˜€ Tomorrow will come soon enough πŸ˜€

I know Bazza1234 is right (soooo right), but I would have done it. I don't have that kind of self control. Whatever you do, you're going to be a graduate very soon.

Don't worry, you'll do it tomorrow is style!! :) You have your whole running life ahead of you, one day won't make any difference in the grand scheme of things. :) Looking forward to hearing all about it!
