Hope you told yourself off good and proper!

They’ll be tougher runs ahead so think positive and you’ll smash it!

Yes indeed... give yourself a slap on the wrists too. If you can do that all negative, imagine what you can do when you believe in yourself. May take a while if you’re stubborn and need to prove yourself wrong a few times. Stubbornness itself can be good later!

Great job!

I am stubborn I was making excuses why not to and I did indeed give me a power slap! What was worse my hubby started making excuses for me🤣🤣

😂. He’s supporting your doubting... ok, give him that slap and tell him to support the running instead.

Use the stubbornness to push you along... you can do this, you are doing this, you will do this.

It’s easier when I am working as I do my run before I work! He cannot sabotage that!
