Week 1 Run 2 - Thank Heavens for Thunderstorms

5 Replies

So it screamed, howled, banged, flashed and poured with rain last night, but that dropped the temperature by about 5 degrees this morning. So I went for a run/walk and what do you know I managed to do a little further distance than last time. Michael J is my preferred coach - he's so calm. He's calm so I can carry on!

Yep,it's decidedly cooler all right. My heating is back,on to,dry out my dog walking gear 😃

Michael is so Zen isn't he. Just the guy you need in your corner when the going gets tough. Just keep plugging away and he'll bring you safely home

Well done 🙂

Saturday is my big test for Michael - he will need to be like an Army Sergeant Major to get me out of bed early... still I followed up today's run with helping take a tree down. Don't know if that counts as a post run stretch? Hope dog walking gear dries out soonish.

So I keep on going by hoping that Michael will one day appear in person... as you can tell somewhat wishful thinking on my part. Hope flaming June returns to you soon. We still have 28/82 degrees. Tomorrow is a rest day - yay

Pouring currently...I am quite glad that I am on the IC... my bank balance is getting smaller as we speak... so many great running gear bargains out there:)

Enjoy your rest day!
