Well for me it’s definitely taking new routes on longer runs! It was a real thought going out tonight dark& drizzling rain but i knew if I didn’t go thats a day lost & maybe worse day tomorrow so off i went just started run & first time ever ear phones fell out & as they are air pods i was fumbling about my hoodie to find them!!! So it was a definite slow run!! Managed to get them only to see a wee hill as I wasn’t really concentrating where i was going!! So plodded up it so nice to get the down hill bit & honestly i was in & out of streets hoping id end up back where i started!! Roads look different in the dark & houses look the same😂😂 it was great as before i knew it laura said two minutes to go but let me warn all those using laura, she says thats you done well done now brisk walk, well fortunately i looked at my phone & app said 1 min left so i kept running & then at end of 1 min laura again said well done now walk!! Or words to that effect😂 anyway 27mins done!!! I think il make this graduation 🤗its great after run!!!! Happy running fellow runners👍
