Week 5, run 1 - in the bag.

I posted last week about flaking out in the middle of this run. I’ve not tried again, and it was getting bigger and bigger in my mind until tonight. I knew if I didn’t do it tonight I probably wouldn’t do it at all. So I went out and I did it!

I went very slowly but I did it!

I also added some extra motivation by imagining Bruce Dickinson running the route with me 😄 He kept me going!

Congratulations on getting your mojo back! Good luck with the rest of the week and don’t let r3 faze you. It’s very doable if you can do 1&2.
