Well after being one of my sleepless nights, age i think๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚, woke at 2.40am couldnโ€™t ๐Ÿ’ค so after tozzing & turning, read my womans running magazines made a cup of tea & debated what time would i go for a run morning or after 5pm๐Ÿค”mm... well ive always said im not a morning person so decided at 6.30ish il look on thr forum see if anyoneโ€™s been out! Happyhammer73 had done 20mins๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘wow its maybe not such a bad idea as im not sleeping & this was my dreaded 20mins too so maybe a good sign !!

So i got changed, its still dark so added benefit no one will see me puffing & panting๐Ÿ˜‚

Omg๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Ši did it!! 20 mins & 1min extra ! I must admit though when laura first spoke i thought great 10mins in what a shock when she said 5mins๐Ÿ˜‚ it seemed 10!! But old floss you would be proud of me i slowed down, snail pace๐Ÿ˜‚& i carried on! No music! Beautiful morning stars in the sky & sun rising what a start to my day!! I havenโ€™t even checked what time either hyst happy i did 20 mins! And it doesnโ€™t matter what the day throws at me i know my run is done!! 1-1 meeting with my big boss & im ready for him๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚see the benefits of running worth every penny ๐Ÿ˜Š happy Running everyone & do not fear that 20mins if i can do it at 60 anyone can๐Ÿ˜‰
