OMG. W8R1, I got it!

Finally! I now get it when others have said things like ‘enjoyed it’ settled into it’ & ‘didn’t want to stop’. Finally this morning, on my longest run ever, I got all those feelings. The weather was perfect, I set off steady, the planets were aligned and I just carried on. Unbelievably when I got home and checked my times, each K was a tiny bit faster than any I’ve done before too!

This is bloody fantastic! I feel great! Whoop whoop 👏🎉

Thank you both. I can’t believe I’m going to be one of ‘those’ people (who I’ve always envied btw) but I really did enjoy it. Slow & steady always been my mantra. The little bit of extra speed happened all on its own haha
