Week9 Run2

Still amazed that this is my penultimate run πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ not my favourite run, not sure why but never really got into the happy groove of Monday. I was arguing with myself all the way that I should just dump it and go again another day, but knowing I was already half way and would be busy tomorrow I preserved 😁 if I'd stopped I'd only have to walk home so made sense to plod on.

Ended the run with grin though, managed to pass my 17 year old with his mates -didn't see his reaction, he was in the back of a car, but front windows wound down and gave me the thumbs up 🀣

PS: Have mapped the pit and it's 6km, that's there and back down the trail, so something to aim for ... they do a decent brew and breakfast so might have to break it up πŸ˜‰

My W9R2 was a horror show and my graduation run was fantastic.

Bad dress rehearsal, great performance?

Well done for soldiering on and enjoy the grad run.
