Early morning run completed. Changed a couple of things
1. No music just Oldflosses mantra in my ear🤣
2. Stopped trying to complete 5k so went at a slower pace
End result? Completed my run & able to do an old ladies sprint finish!!!
Have fun running today folks👍🏻
Well done OL - and so early! 👏👏👏 You’re not far off the podium, and we’re following your amazing progress! 🏃♀️👏😀👍
I’m biding my time until I leave for Parkrun. The rain hasn’t started yet, but it’s on its way, so I might need to go headphones free too. Not sure how to avoid phone getting wet! 💦🏃♀️
Tried a zip lock bag? I’ve missed the rain this morning thankfully but l don’t actually mind getting wet lol. Hopefully you’ll miss the rain drops. Wet & cold not a good mix. Enjoy your parkrun, I’ll have to try it soon. Thank you for your support, much appreciated 👍🏻
Looking at the forecast it’s supposed to get heavy at 9am, just when parkrun starts! Never mind, it’ll be character building I’m sure!
Yes, a ziplock sounds a good idea, although not sure I have any at the moment. I might wrap my phone in cling film and wear it in my arm holder as usual. All these first world problems! 😅
As for supporting you, you’re more than welcome. 😀 I had tons of help when I was doing the programme, and I like paying it forward! 👍🏃♀️😀
I'm parkrunning too. Coffee and 1/2 banana. Hope the rain stays off for u. Ok so far where I am. I don't do headphones at parkrun, too worried I might miss something! Good luck with it!
I’ve just parked and I’m slightly early so I’m waiting in the dry for a few minutes. Rain is fairly light currently, but it’s getting very dark! 😳💦
I like my MMR updates, hence the headphones. I just put one ear in!
Have fun Deals, and hope you stay dry too! 😀
Well done for getting it done early. Yay! I use a light bumbag (bit sure if they still call it that, I'm old skool!), it can only fit in my phone and a key but it just keeps everything safe and dry. I got a cheap one off of eBay, was about £3.99.
Well done on your progress.
I’m definitely old school lol 😂
Well done! And yep early.. esp for a Saturday.
I’m an early riser & to be honest like to get my run done whilst it still dark. Have a fab weekend 👍🏻
I do too, but only so I don't run into any school mums! Nobody needs to see that in the morning 😂
😂 like a stealth ninja 😂
Not sure I would dare go music free.... I wouldn't want to listen to the rubbish I talk! Enjoy the rest of your weekend lady61 🤗
Funny uncle_wiggy 🤣🤣All l could hear was the wild life briefly interrupted by Oldflosses mantra “slow & steady”. Have a fab weekend👍🏻
I talk to myself too uncle! So with that and my loud breathing, I prefer music! 😅
You crazy bunch 🤩🤩
An ‘old ladies’ sprint finish - that expression did make me chuckle as a an older lady myself!
Just a tad above a🐢speed minus the Zimmer frame ⛵️ 👩 🤣🤣😜
It’s amazing how much easier and more enjoyable the run is when you take the pressure of yourself. Credit to you for the sprint finish! 🙂
Thankyou Faith. To be honest it was only for the last 60 secs but it felt good 👍🏻
Went music-less for the first time today, on W7R1, and took the Today programme instead. More distracting, but I missed the pacing from my carefully selected playlist. What I need is John Humphrys with a backbeat.
A conundrum indeed FT, choices ehh 👍🏻
I admire you and everyone else who do morning runs, let alone early morning runs! At 53, I usually need a full day just to warm up for the late afternoon run. The running schedule is definitely helping loosening up body stiffness though 😊
No excuses Dragonflies I’m 61 😂😂 l think if l ran any later I’d never get off the 🛋 so good on you 👍🏻
Well I guess that is part of beauty with life, we are all different 🌻
W7R1 Feeling Free!
W7R1 - Omg!!
W7R1.. Stalled the engine 😩
