So I was so determined to get a run in early this week that I woke up at 6:15 in the dark and dragged my daughter and dog out for R2. I was slower again but managed both 8 minutes. Feel so proud of myself but shattered for a commute and work day ahead!

Thank you. Other people were running and going to work so felt quite good that I wasn’t enticed by a little longer in bed!

I always do my run 1st thing. So I know I’ve started the day doing something positive. Keep it up xx
