Yes, I did it - Stormzy brought me home!

Well folkes I was feeling lethargic, heavy and underlyingly stressed and was convinced an early night would be best. However after looking at a couple of posts from fellow running pals who shared their not so great run, but great determination, I felt inspired to shift my butt and get out there!

I was anticipating sharing a tale of lifting my lead like body around the park, particularly as I saw a little groups of youths hanging around with the potential to stare. However......I declared the park for myself, children and dog owners and set about my run. Lovely kids politely moved their bike as they watched me go past them slower than their eyes could move! 😂 The wonder that I am!

I didn’t (edited - not did) feel the heaviness or even the rasp of breathing that I was expecting and Stormzy came on my headphones during the last 3 min run, which had me smiling like a Cheshire Cat and reminding myself not to bop up and down! It uses up energy, so Michael tells me.

So, quite unexpectedly, I do feel fabulous!! Wooo hooo!! ❤️❤️
