Thank you to all the lovely runners out there that gave me the advice of after having a break for 9 days, just to get back and do the next run.

What a wonderful glorious run it was, after 5 minutes I was doubting the advice but persevered and as someone quoted before, my robot legs took over.

Well I've got to admit they took over a bit too much and after finishing my run I took a route which I thought I knew and I ended up in a field up to my ankles in mud, I must have looked a terrible sight as one woman didn't even want her dog near me!!

When I eventually got back to civilisation I was totally lost! So I had to phone my lovely partner and quote street names so he could come and pick me up! I was 2 and half miles away with totally wet feet and mud everywhere!

But I ran for 30 minutes on a glorious morning and totally loved it 😁😁
