I am totally buzzing --- only gone and done it Just completed the biggest one so far ... the legendary 20 min run . Very long day at work - home at 9 pm but still excited to pull on my trainers and running gear and join all you lovely people I have read about today who completed this run .

Grinning from ear to ear , may have a celebratory G & T 🍸after my shower . πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—

I will do - going to be sensible if too hot but determined not to loose this hard work ... Away for 10 days so able to do runs the night before I fly and the evening we arrive home . Do that's 3 or 4 runs whilst there . I so can do that I'm sure πŸ˜„
