First smiley face run!

[Dee_N]

Week 5 run 1.

I have never clicked on the smiley face on my app before a run. At best it has always been 😐. But I was feeling quite optimistic about this one. I felt like this one was in the bag!

First 5 mins- I felt good! On came the one hit wonder by the Veronicas ‘untouched’ brilliant!!

Did my brisk walk and even overtook a dog walker who was ahead of me. (He may have been weighed down by his poo bag or maybe I’m awesome 🤔)

Next 5 mins - uh oh....panic sets in half way, which always affects my breathing. But just in the nick of time plays Portugal. The man ‘Feel it still’ ‘oooh wooo I’m a rebel just for kicks yeah’ get in!! Followed by MJ ‘bet you didn’t think you could do this 5 weeks ago?’ Cue the BIGGEST grin ever!!! 😁😁😁 He is very right. No I really didn’t.

Last 5 minutes- THE HILL. Crap! gets me every time! But again saved by another cracking tune. Florence and Machine ‘Dog days are over’. That definitely put a rocket up me 🚀 wheeee!!

Ended my run with a 🙂

Smiley face rating? Be careful there... that’s the slippery slope to being a runner!

Way to go Dee

I love your write up. Well done smiler! 😁

[Dee_N Graduate in reply to BaddieThePirate]

I love your name 😍 is there a story behind it?

[BaddieThePirate Graduate]

I was always so well behaved as a kid I actually had to ask for a detention to see what they were like. The teacher refused so me and a friend walked in to the classroom backwards, claiming to be backward children. That got us our detention. I love being called Baddie because it's so ironic. I'm the goodest baddie there is 😁

And I like boats. I used to drive a tug boat for a job.

Haha!! I love that story! I only ever had detention twice in school. Once for chatting, and once for answering back! I often get called cheeky hmmm 🙈 seems to have followed me around as an adult.
