Take that, gremlins!!

[missmiff]

After having a week's break due to illness, the gremlins were really strong this morning. I really struggled to get up and put my kit on because my confidence had gone and the gremlins were trying to get me to give up. Somehow I found myself heading out of the door into a beautiful peaceful sunrise. The run was fine and I actually felt stronger than ever. Recovery time really quick too. So TAKE THAT YOU STUPID GREMLINS!! Winners never quit and quitters never win 😁

Well done you!!

Nothing like a runner and a beautiful morning for kicking those Gremlins into touch!

You have done brilliantly... and what a start to the day

Thank you x

I struggle with lack of confidence anyway and some days just getting out of the house to do anything is a big achievement for me. I am learning that although I am a full time carer for three family members, the person I find hardest to care for is me..so I am making baby steps towards changing that for good.

Thank to again for your support it means a lot x

Honestly... I can tell you, that your post..the first I read this morning cheered me..more than you may think.

Loving care for others, often means that you neglect yourself; simply try to remember, that you, are your biggest asset...be kind to yourself, and celebrate every small occasion when you are the priority

You will get there, as you say, small steps....make them slow and steady, but light too. They are carrying you forward wonderfully

Hi, your posts are strong and brave. I'm on week 6 now and I started because I need to lose weight. By the 3rd week I was doing it just for me as it makes me feel so much better about myself. I do early mornings too. Keep going and keep looking after you 😁
