Week 7, in the bag

Well, that was okay. I had one moment of feeling a bit detached, I'm not sure what that means, but it was pleasant whilst it lasted (about one song!) And then Laura told me I had 5 minutes left.

I think I am going to have to get up very early once it gets lighter again, as I seem to prefer the darker runs.

I hope 1 have the extra 3 minutes in me for week 8, I'm going to put them at the beginning and get them out of the way 😁

Good luck to all today's runners.

You may have hit the running zone on that run Jell, where you can breathe freely and your legs know what to do...

Sometimes referred to as robot legs on here, its nice when that happens..

Keep up the great work..start nice and steady😊xx

I like your logic 😉 you'll be ok, you know you will!

It is different with the longer runs, your mind goes off all over the place. I haven't worked out if that's a good or bad thing yet! 👍😁

Well it wandered this morning, as I was coming back and it was getting lighter, I wondered why there were fallen leaves all across the lane.

Not leaves squashed frogs!!!

I wonder how many I stomped on in the dark, on my outgoing part😐

Not what you're looking for?
