Sweaty mess

I have skived for a few days. Lionel Richie followed by two hours dancing in a very dark club, fuelled by shots (my teens were impressed) followed by chips sitting on a wall at 1.30am meant that I was not a my fitness prime for the next two days. The following day I collapsed in a deck chair on Brighton pier and refused to move for two hours. Still felt rubbish Monday and Tuesday I went to the beach for the first swim and BBQ of the year.

This mornings run was challenging even at 7am it was scorcho , the first five mins felt like the first five I ever did on this programme the last ten I spent trying not to think about the fact I needed to pee. As I finished I found my lovely daughter in the grave yard watching me and smiling “wow your fast mum “ she said “well done” I felt really emotional and sweaty. I managed 4.7k in 30 mins and I feel so happy and proud of my self 😀

Above is the BBQ beach.

Well done!

That is an amazing distance in 30 mins, especially in the heat.

One more run to go.

Well done. That is an extremely impressive distance regardless of the heat and the umm preceding health regime. The podium awaits.

Looks fabulous. Think I'd be tempted to just stay put there and not worry about running for a few days. Especially in this heat...should have taken up swimming as a hobby! 🤒 So massive well done for getting out there this morning! My daughter has also been super supportive but the word 'fast' has not been said 🤣

My daughter once suggested I take a couch with me, she hates running so her concept of fast is a bit warped 😂

That’s fantastic Amanda! What a great run! Sounds like you had an amazing night! I’m well-jel (that’s young person speak I think).

Enjoy the beach and the lovely hot weather! 🤗🤗

Wow great distance in that time (and heat!) I’m waiting for the weekend when I can get out when it’s a bit cooler - the evenings just aren’t cooling down here this week!

[Berksrover Graduate]

Great to see a balanced lifestyle, no reason not to have the odd binge and also keep the running up, sign of a healthy attitude to life in my opinion, look forward to seeing that graduate badge alongside your name
