Week 9 Run 2 -or the Curious Case of the Dog in the Night Time....

Our ageing lab decided to bark throughout the night on the hour so getting up at silly o’clock to complete my penultimate run took some effort! However, it appears I did my best time and I figure that’s worth getting out of bed for! Off to earn an honest crust ( or in my case, a small crumpet) and recover before the big finale on Friday and the big reveal to family and friends....happy running! 🙂

Good for you. Bet you can’t believe you’re at the final hurdle. 😃

Enjoy Friday when I’m sure the planets will align and all the past 9 weeks’ hard work will pay off.

Well done and lots of luck for Friday!! I'd love to say I will be virtually running with you, but you get out so early I think I will only join the virtual celebration!

Well done SpeedMaQueen, enjoy your crumpet and make sure you give the dog some too, if he hadn’t barked and got you up early then you might have struggled with the heat running later 😂

Good luck with your graduation run on Friday, you can do this 🙌😊
