Week 8 run 1 and a half

Well wasn't planning on a run tonight as wanted a couple of rest days after Monday's 28 min run. But me and my eldest decided to go out for a bit of fresh air and both having had a rubbish day. Plus I wanted to have a little run to improve my running style without watching the clock (as currently I look like a geriatric flamingo) oh and it's fat class weigh day tomorrow. Anyway loved my run tonight went a bit faster improved my stride and did just 14 mins. Was nice not counting down and relaxing too. Never thought I would say 'just off out for a quick jog' but now I can!!

I know I haven't quite got that in my head just yet that I am a runner keep thinking I'm just playing at being a runner!

I am!! Wow I actually am. Still can't believe it that after a crappy day at work instead of reaching for the wine I went for a run.

It's good isn't it very casually saying just out for a run and actually delivering it....
