It wasn’t as easy as I expected after my tech mishap on Sunday when I ran for 36 mins by mistake as I found out my lap which I thought took 4 mins actually took 8 no wonder I was so tired!!!! However plodded on as usual on a dry morning for a change two minor tech mishaps but nothing like the horrendous 15 second failure of tech on Sunday and me not realising for 8 mins!!! One more run to go and let’s hope tech plays ball to just do a normal 28 min run 🏃 good luck to everyone whatever run your on 😀see you all at the graduation line 🤞
