Well I woke up at 5am, looked out of my window and thought no way, it’s hammering down and blowing a gale out there. I then thought of everyone on here saying ‘ignore the gremlins’. So I went out and I DID IT! I’ve decided I actually feel mentally a lot better after a run. Looking forward to the next one already. 😊😊

Well done Shelly2310!

You did way better than me this morning👍

I also go up at 5am saw it was raining and very windy but decided to give Wk8R2 a go... And boy I struggled, running into the wind literally took my breath away and I reckon I walked half of it and ran the last 14mins. I'm off tomorrow so I'm going to give it another go.

Like you though I find getting up early and getting out there generally sets me up for the day..... Keep up the good work, you're doing just great 👏💪
