I’m going away on holiday on Monday and I’m excited to go. Kids are all grown, so just my husband and our dog (using her brand new pet passport!)

But that isn’t on my mind at the moment - I’m equally as excited to be starting W7 tomorrow morning, nice and early before it gets hot. Absolutely can’t wait.

How sad is that? πŸ™„πŸ˜…πŸ™„πŸ˜…πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Sad is how we all were before that very first run. Hope you enjoy the holiday as much as you’ll enjoy W7

Haha yes! Although I’m sure she’ll love it even more when I can run fast enough for her to break out of a slow trot beside me! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ˜…πŸ•πŸŒ

If all goes to plan....I'll be graduating while on holiday.....and if I'm not that far ahead....fully intend to keep doing my stuff to get to graduation.....but, I'm definitely excited about going running out of the country.....very sad, lol!!!

So - you're quite normal in that sense, there are lots of us out here who feel the same!!!

Happy holidays and happy running with the dog!!!πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ•πŸ˜Š

Thank you! I know I’ll be very excited about the holiday once I’ve done tomorrow’s run! It should be fun because I’ll have a 2km dead straight rowing lake to run up and down (my husband is competing), then we’re heading off to the Alps, so I’ll be seeking out beautiful Alpine valleys!

Hope you enjoy your holiday/graduation combined! Photos required obviously!

Sounds perfect to me....running on a straight flat stretch with Alpine scenery is my idea of a dream run....!!! Enjoy!!!! 😊

I'm still on Week 5....so graduation is a way off....I'm not thinking much about it....except for working out when i started C25K that i would need to run on my holiday - which the at time petrified me....but now actually makes me happy as it will be so much easier to fit in a run while on holiday as opposed to while working, doing school runs, etc etc

Yeah.....I need a life too!!! πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
