W9R1 I had a big decision to make today - to Run or not to Run was the Question 🧐

So leaving week 8 feeling triumphant I ventured 230plus miles south for the weekend and had a wonderful meal and champagne on Friday excited about graduating C25K this week and my upcoming holiday - life was good.

But then I woke on Saturday and couldn’t lift my head from the pillow I felt like I’d swallowed glass - so my weekend was then about repairing in the quickest time possible as I couldn’t have anything thwart my goals.

Dosed myself up moved hardly at all off the sofa - reminiscent of a previous me BUT this time it was justified.

Took a light walk of 2 miles on Sunday. 20hours plus sleep.

Drove home this morning and the answer to the question - was of course you run girl.

So I’m pleased to say just 80 mins of C25K coaching left for me.

Apologies for the long post but even struck down with a cold there’s always a run in you. Let’s nail this week everyone wherever you are on the programme.
