Oh Bum!

So, there I was W5, R2 thinking this would be so easy because R1 was a doddle! Chose a different route and realised half way through the second 8 minutes that it was all uphill. Took a deep breath and with it inhaled the stench of horse manure, which was rife in the heat, and nearly threw up. Needless to say, I didn't quite run the whole 8 minutes, as I was desperately trying to keep my breakfast down, but I feel a bit disappointed with myself. I'm going to try again on Sunday, my usual route and no showing off next time. Wish me luck! 😕

Ah, good luck for Sunday!

We all have a bad run from time to time, just put it out of your mind and think positive thoughts for your next run - you’ll be fine!

Yes, thanks, I'm not going to let it put me off. Can't wait to get out there again and give it another go 🏃

Oh boy that’s 💩 ! I remember inhaling a swarm of tiny flying midges just before a 90 second run with no option but to swallow 😝 Although I’m sure the protein boost got me through it.

Nothing to be done about what the world throws at you, it’s not a failure on your part. Sunday will be awesome!

Thanks! I've told myself that I will do it on Sunday, I'm going to get up early and go for it! Whatever happens I'm not giving up, I've come too far now!!! 😀
