W7R3 (and then some!)

I don't know what it is about running on a Friday evening.. Maybe it's because I know that it's my last run before a weekend off or maybe Monday's are just hard because I've taken those 2 days, who knows.. but EVERY Friday I suprise myself and smash the R3 of each week.

Today was no different. It worked for me on Wednesday so I kept Laura at bay and opted for my YouTube running anthems again, basing my timings on the number of songs I ran through. I was so engrossed in my music and just keeping my legs moving that when I checked my treadmill for the time, I'd run 24mins 45secs!! Well because I'd thought I was around 20mins in and was enjoying the run, not too tired or desperate to start my cool down walk, I continued.

30mins done! (And I'd have carried on if the other half hadn't been burning the tea!) So pleased!!

Love this Friday feeling 😊. Happy weekend everyone x
