2018 Race for Life in memory of my Dad ❀

Every year I tell myself that the following year I'll do some training and run it instead of walk ~ and I never do! But thanks to the C25K programme and the encouragement from you amazing humans on here, today I ran "most" of it ~ but it was soooo hot 🌞🌞

One of those mixed emotions days.

This one was for you Dad ❀

Fantastic Flara! What a brilliant reason to train up. You did your Dad proud ❀️

And as many have said, what’s the big problem with the shorts?!! You look great!! 😁

Thanks TC 😊 I think the camera angle has helped in the legs department, but I'm also starting to think that this programme is helping with my negative body image 😊

It also massively tones legs. Fact.
