W5/R2

I almost took an extra rest day not because I needed it but because I was being lazy and kept talking myself out of my Run but..... I put on my Run togs n trainers 👟 and hey presto I got out the door ... I gave myself a good talking to on my 5 min warm up and when Jo whiley said 8 min of running coming up I told my brain to slam that door shut on the Gremlins and don't let em in.... yay I made it ...amazing what the mind over matter theory can achieve I feel great I just hope it works for the dreaded W5R3 😬 not stressing over it tonight though had my shower food n a nice glass of wine spritzer ..bed is calling me sweet dreams all x woop woop 8 whole minutes yay x

You did so well.... those pesky gremlins.. they never give up! But you showed them! Well done you!

[Wizziewood]

You don't need to hurry. Slow is lovely for this caper

Good luck 🙂

Feels good doesn't it? 😊 I nearly talked myself out of it too but gave self a lecture

[Hidden in reply to Polly2810]

Lol it sure did...giving ones self a good talking too seems to have done the trick to keep the Gremlins at bay my new Moto in my head is .... it's not your legs they are moving.... shut the mind door n keep going ....😬 fingers crossed for tomorrow 😬

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Let me know...I'm not till Sunday...my daughter staying over Saturday night so she will keep me going hopefully...just don't see how I will ever be able to add another 12 mins on...legs will be like cement!! 🤣

[Hidden in reply to Polly2810]

Will do .... not sure if I'm going morning or evening.... off work Friday so will see how the day pans out 😬 have to admit I'm full of dread but like we do I'll give myself a good talking too and just go for it with fingers and toes crossed... well maybe not the toes 😂 x

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Hidden]

No toes crossed...may fall over 🤣🤣

[Hidden in reply to Polly2810]

😂 I may fall over anyway just hope there's someone around to press pause if I do 😂😂😂
