Delayed start to week 8 😫

Unfortunately I’ve had to take a couple of extra rest days before starting week 8, work has been horrendously busy, and, my poor wife has torn her meniscus (been in A&E since 6 this morning) I honestly thought I’d enjoy the extra rest day but I’m chomping at the bit with graduation hopefully in sight!!! What on earth has this running malarkey done to me!! πŸ€ͺ🀘πŸ€ͺ🀘

Yes your addicted, but it's a good addiction to have . Hope your wife is ok 😊

Stay strong rich lol. It's madness how addictive running is . We will soon have graduated so hold tight πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ we'll get there in the end πŸ˜πŸ‘ŒβœŒ

So sorry to hear your wife has been to hospital, hope she’s doing ok? Even more sorry you had to take ANOTHER rest day?!?! 😜 I joke, the next run will be all the more sweeter once you get out there! Hope the Mrs is in the mend πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ»

Thanks Tee, she’s in a lot of pain but I think she quite likes being waited on hand and foot πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ it will be nice to get on with the next run though πŸ€ͺ🀘πŸ€ͺ🀘

Sorry to hear about Mrs Richlfb, hope she’s on the mend. I’ve also been forced to take extra rest days due to having the removal men deliver my furniture and boxes this week. Should have done week 8 run 3 on Wednesday but I’m heading out this morning to do it at Parkrun instead. Hope you get back out there soon.
