Does this Lycra make my butt look big? 😂

So I started week 5 and loved it, I was out all day and on my feet but discussed with the husband. If I don’t go out, I’ll just keep putting it off.

Whilst driving today found some tunes which were promptly added to my running playlist

Today, Jo talked about running clothes and I couldn’t help feel I was quite bland and a shopping trip might be required... any reason really.

I’m still trying to work out whether my body has changed during the programme or my Lycra is playing tricks on me.

Either way. Onwards to Run 2!

The dreaded Lycra. We don our first tights with trepidation It was that which made me hide out for the duration of 25k and beyond graduation I was pleasantly surprised though that the Nike’s I bought sucked everything in lovely so I didn’t look like a sack o spuds

I buy most of my gear from Lidl Wore my new warm weather coral top yesterday 🙂. Happy shopping 👍😃

I was a little self conscious at first but found my new leggings are a lot more comfy and do suck everything in.

I’m a sucker for a sports direct sale

I haven’t got thinner but I’m more toned and I think my bum is more muscled 🤷🏼‍♀️

Mine seems a lot more firmer... I ask my hubby for his opinion and he doesn’t know whether I’m trying to catch him out. But I generally want an honest answer 😂 either way he’s a Lycra fan.
