New route fired me up!

Lay in bed awake way before 5:00a.m. Alarm plotting new route to increase motivation. Tricky unless I want to tackle serious hills( I don’t at this stage!!). Worked a new there and back one out which did involve more of an unlit country lane than I’d planned but seeing the sheep waking up and listening to the birds was compensation and I was soon at the bell heading back to the village. Mrs Left Leg almost enjoyed it and is very grateful for the two day rest routine and will now be getting at least 5 as I head off to Nice with W8R2 nicely under my belt. Feeling great!!!

The hills the hills! I’m going out shortly to do run 3 of week 5 and it’s. A hill morning ( 2 days a week I drive down to the sea where it’s flat) wish me luck as you wave me goodbye! Well done on your early morning run!
