I’m in the I can finish zone! I’m a runner and MJ was very proud of me too. What more can one ask for?
Well I got out and it was already pretty hot! However, as soon as I hit the corner I was faced with a poor cat who had obviously been hit by a car and.....well I don’t want to spoil anyone’s day. It made my whole run a challenge. I couldn’t do anything about it, but it was hard to get that image out of my head. So, of all the runs so far, this one took more mental strength than physical. It’s the lovely thought free zone that I absolutely love. I was imagining the cats owners wondering where their cat is. Ok...let me stop. So I had to reason with myself in that sometimes life is like that. You have many unexpected things happen and you can’t do anything about it, but you can always create some good ones too.
I feel absolutely amazed by this experience and I have found a mental flexibility in myself like never before. I didn’t have humour to carry me through on this run, but I had the belief that I can do it. I can be a runner and go all the way! In fact MJ said I’m a runner! Hey.....it must be true!
Have an amazing day runners! W7R1 in Guernsey Wednesday! The adventure continues!! ❤️❤️

Thank you! Me too! I have a cat and always worry about the fact he seems to like to lay in the road sometimes. It’s only around the corner too. My cat was meant to be for my son 🙄, but you know you can’t help but get attached. Another thing thrown into the mix, but I did it! 😁😁❤️
Thank you QueenTea! I’ve certainly had some battles presented in these 6 short weeks! So many, it feels quite a bit longer. But, I’m still going! And I’m a runner! Me! 😁 ❤️
Well done Fabulous! V sad about the cat. I also have cats and it's a constant worry if they go AWOL for a bit 😥 Its a great feeling when good old MJ tells you you're a runner isn't it? Like you're starting to suspect it but can quite believe it yet! Heading towards the finish line now...we're waiting 😀
Another cat owner with a busy road nearby. Compassion and empathy are sadly lacking in the way some people deal with life. Not in you. A runner and a great person too x
Too near Jay! I always run the other way when he’s out, as he does try to follow me for a bit! I’ve no idea if he’s ever been around the corner, but I’m certainly not going to lead him there. Just have to hope!
Thank you Jay You’re all great too! Very understanding! I thought I might sound silly, but this run was very different! ❤️
Never silly to feel. Well done for continuing to run - I’ve no idea how that would’ve affected me.
Well done! Brilliant- you are on the home stretch now! That’s really sad though & like u I can’t bear anything like that - i would be thinking about it all day. I saw a bird hit by a car a few weeks ago & couldn’t get the image out of my head! Don’t dwell on it though - focus on the fact that the podium is in sight! Can u see all of us in the distance polishing the podium & waving at you??
Oh yes, Welshwitch, I can see you all throwing up your graduation caps!! 👩🎓 👨🎓 👩🎓 👨🎓 😁😁 There’s one waiting with my name on it! I’m running to get mine too!
Thank you southlundon! I know! Certainly reminds you how much you love them. Trouble though they can be sometimes! 😉 Well done to you too!! We are doing it!! ❤️❤️
That's fantabulous Fabulous! Well done! You've galloped off ahead of me now though, I haven't had a chance to start W6, life has gotten (is that English?!) in the way a little, looking forward to getting on with it this evening. Enjoy Guernsey you lucky so-and-so...
Thank you Guesty! I’m doing just that. I did do the bit of extra push for the last 60 seconds with MJs blessing! That was me shaking off the feeling! Felt pretty good actually! Looking forward now!! 😁❤️
Well done! Looking forward - yes, looking forward!! to my run this evening. Just hope it’s not too hot. I love feeling the sun on my skin when I’m out running, but not too much extra heat. 🌞😓
☀️ ☀️ 😁😁 me too. It would have to be a very early or very late running for me. It was HOT from so early this morning. I was purposely trying to stay in the shade. Good luck for later and then roll on W7 for us!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽❤️❤️
Thank you. I think I was a bit void of that feeling today, but I’m looking forward to my next run and I’m so grateful to get to this point! It is brilliant. ❤️
