Week 9 Run 1 nearly a ❌ but made it a ✅

Well this morning nearly made me throw towel in on first run of week nine.

Decided to run this morning so we could enjoy rest of the bank holiday but wasn’t quite feeling it from the off. Not sure if it’s last week jitters like a few others have mentioned or purely how warm it was. Ran for the first ten minutes then head got better of me and I just stopped. I was so annoyed with myself - I had a foot stomp 😡 and some sternish motivation from hubby whilst walking for ten minutes then we started running back and managed the full thirty.

It was tough today and I didn’t enjoy it but it’s done and in the bag and that’s all that counts. Onwards and upwards 🏃🏽‍♀️
