I was up at 6.30 this morning before work to fit in my run as wifey is away for a couple of days and I’m doing childcare.

I was thinking I must be out of my tiny mind!. Legs ached towards the end and I’m thinking my last run on this week which I here is 20 min run will be a whole new ball game 😱

Me to. I’m not a morning person!. That dream of single malt last night before bed probably didn’t help either 😁

Better stick your phone in a plastic bag so it doesn’t drown!. I was thinking I could run with a brolly up then thought running about in a thunder storm with a brolly wouldn’t be such a great idea 🤔

You'll be fine. Loads of posts on here about the W5R3 "challenge". And if it's thundering and lightning it'll put a spring in your step!!

I’ll be running for my life if the last lightning storm the other day was anything to go by 😬
