This morning I finished w7 r2, won’t lie it was tough just after the midway point when I had to turn and go back uphill.
Anyway I am trying to look at the extra positives to getting up early and completing my runs. This mornings was raspberries! We’ve had a slow start to the crop this year and the birds are getting them before they fully ripen. However this morning I picked this handful to go on my breakfast, definitely a positive for getting up and out early.
What are your unexpected bonuses?

Good for you and good hat you kept going reading such comments makes me realise I’m not the only one who is struggling but continuing. The raspberries looked lovely my added bonus is that at the end of my runs my legs don’t hurt and I’m honestly feeling happier that’s good enough for me. All the best 😀
My unexpected bonus is the calmness before work an early run brings me. Like many, I have a stressful job and a running day is always easier to deal with than a rest day.
My unexpected bonus is that lovely healthy glow (once the bright red bit has gone...usually about two hours in my case 🤣) you are left with for the rest of the day.
Apart from getting fitter, I do think my skin is looking fresher and, dare I say it, younger 😁
My unexpected bonus is weight loss. Colleagues commenting on it now and getting into smaller sizes that were designated to the back of the closet in disgust when they no longer fit. I haven't added the nutrition bit in to my lifestyle change yet, in fact I think I'm worse as I'm always treating myself for running, with sugary treats- bad,bad,bad 😔
