So I was going to go out for my run after the match this evening but decided to go out just after half-time and record the match. Good job I did or I wouldn’t have made it out tonight!! Brilliant result from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿!! Equally great result with my run. It felt really good and I didn’t notice the extra 3 minutes running. I started Strava after my warm-up walk today and stopped it when the running was complete. I usually start it as soon as I leave home and stop it when I get back home so it includes the warm up and cool down walks. Chuffed to bits to find I’d covered 4.1k in 28 mins. 5k is definitely achievable 👍😊..

Amazing Blonde! 4.1k in 28 is a fantastic run!

Although I can't believe you managed to tear yourself away from the England match! :P

Last nights run felt so relaxed. I was in such a great rhythm and felt so comfortable I could’ve kept on running. But I was good and listened to Laura. I really feel like I’ve relaxed into my running now. The gremlins are there no more, I’ve proved time and time again I can do this. Enjoying it like you wouldn’t believe - hence tearing myself away from the match to go out! 😊😊
