W4R2 done but like pulling teeth!

Just completed this run...not nearly as enjoyable as r1 of this week!

I know I have to just accept some days are like that and move on.

Analysing it a lot of things didn't go swimmingly today...first my friend I run with had a hair appointment, so instead of running at 9am, we ran at 4:30pm.

Second, my phone with music playing cut out as my hubby phoned me 4 times while running!

By the last 5 minute run I had completely lost my train of thought, rhythm and enthusiasm...and was annoyed! Didn't give up...but nearly did when the last 2 minutes we hit a steep hill...

Still having it as completed...just not enjoyable today.

Will just move on to Friday and hopefully my grump will have shifted.

Perhaps you lost your rhythm on running because your husband phoned you FOUR times during that run, I can only think of one person to blame for your annoyance for that run and it wasn't you.

Trust me, he is in the bad books! He is having his least favourite tea tonight, salmon...which is my fave!

Don't think he will do it again, unless it really is an emergency.x

Yes you enjoy your salmon🐟 and give him πŸ’¦ water instead of wine 🍷

Just one if those runs. I used to get phone calls when out running but they all know now not to phone between 10 and 11 πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

That's a good attitude. Some runs you just don't feel it. It really makes you appreciate the runs that are fantastic πŸ˜‰
