Chuffed with myself today 😀

Today I ran R2 of W3 after only 4 hours sleep . Last night I worked a 13 hour night shift and I needed to be up by 3pm . So I set my alarm & did my run 😱 This is so not like me , I’m usually cramming as much sleep as I can following my night shifts. I am so pleased that I did it and I actually enjoyed it 😮

Discovering your new you??!?!! There are very reliable rumors indicating that the bites of the running bug induce mutations. 🛋 🧬 🏃🏻‍♂️

Well done you ⭐️ Make sure you get a good rest before the next one - it’s hard to stay safe if your eyes keep closing 😄

Congratulations! My W3R2 after too little sleep ( not so little as you!) and too much beer the night before was not the best - I hope tomorrow will be better!

Wow... that’s dedication! Well done! Hopefully your next one will have more sleep in from of it... but you enjoyed it so that’s just perfect!

Congratulations! It is weird what this programme does to you, isn't it? :)

It really is strange Pianism, I’m amazed at myself. I am unfit & never exercise so this is totally out of character for me 🤔
