Gremlins hit this morning..woke with a bit of achy back and instantly thought..it's over..my discs are objecting. Do i decided to not to do my usual morning run and see how I was later. Now for me this was a make it break moment..but this is how much I'm evolving...i finished work, home, changed and out to the tow path.

Touch wood no problems apart from the fly😳! I'mdoing this!!

Either my tango top or my running style amuses people but I'm getting lots of hellos and smiles which I'm liking and no longer avoid eye contact.

Gingernutter - There you are!! I've been looking out for you all day and wondering where my virtual running partner was ;-)

Sorry to hear there were gremlins in the bed this morning, but good on you for ignoring them and managing to get out after work.

Remember, people are smiling and saying hello to you because you are amazing!

It's with the help of my virtual running buddies boniobiscuits!! Checking in reading everyone's storied, how they're progressing. It's inspiring and gives you the push that I know I will need.

This is so awesome..I'm loving it, thank you!!

I don’t advise a spider next, it’ll end badly.

Great call to not wait til morning, today was your run day and you went and did it. Keep on running, and those flies are a great protein source.

Could have done with some backslapping to get that fly up πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
