Getting ready for week 9

Had a nice week off trying to get some sleep and giving my body and knee a rest before my last three runs. Its been really hard not to run but I think Its going to be something that I have to stick to as I LOVE running so much and could go a bit crazy. Hopefully my toddler will eventually sleep and I will run with more than 2 hours under my belt. XX

Hi Michele, hope you are rested, restored and repaired. I can definitely tell that you are champing at the bit to get going again! That 30 mins run must feel like a little oasis amidst the constant demands of a young family. It does get easier - and then it starts all over again when they come crashing in after a night out! 😂 Mine are now 20, 18 and 14! Enjoy week 9! Let us know how you get on! Xx

Great to do it before 50, I'm 44 and it definitely makes you younger!
