I hope you get slightly sweaty enthusiastic people saying hi to you too?! We should have a secret signal to acknowledge fellow c25k ers! ๐Ÿคฃ

Loads cooler... It took me a little while to feel confident and think f*** it!! But once I was off running I didnโ€™t care ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™€๏ธ and nobody else did either!!

๐Ÿ‘ Thatโ€™s where I was with my โ€œsilly fat man in a running vestโ€ feeling. F it. Itโ€™s more comfortable and it made me run faster.

Not sure I dare to get into shorts, although sounds quite appealing in this current hot weather. Liked your acquired don't care attitude - cool ๐Ÿ˜Ž

True - so to bare or not to bare, that is the question ? Maybe ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ณ
