So, whilst I was thinking of all the reasons why I couldn’t do it today - it’s cold; it’s raining; I’m tired; I’m hungry - blah blah, I ignored the negative attitude, got into my running gear and set off. So glad I did it and v pleased with my effort. My first run in the wet and I actually really enjoyed it. And the 3 mins were not as tiring as I expected. 👍

Well done! I had to wake up at 7am to go out before it started raining about 8.30am. Glad I did as the rain was really heavy! Well done for ignoring the negative self-talk and running anyway.
