Back in the saddle

After a tricky week I am so glad I went out and did Week 6 Run 2 tonight. So many excuses came to mind before going (to be fair the heavens opened just before I was planning on going!) but I refused to let the gremlins win today. The rain stopped and the stars were beautiful, definitely a reason to go outside for a jog.

It wasn’t especially easy (but i’m not sure it ever will for me) but I got through it! So much of it is mind over matter and the feeling of achievement is immense. One foot in front of the other and one day I WILL graduate!
