Started a new job last week and with the new start times and longer hours I am so tired when I get in at night I didn't want to go out last night. My eldest asked why I wasn't going out and I said I was too tired and he offered to jog with me even if it was only a couple of k. Reluctantly I agreed and off we went at 8.30 last night.

So glad we went cus I managed just over 5k and felt so much better for it.

The moral (to me) is just go out and do something no matter how hard you have been working as it felt great afterwards

160k of my 200k challenge done for Alzheimer's research with 3 weeks to go

Have a great weekend πŸ’

Well done you. It's this type of post we need to read and remember, that even though you are tired it's how great you feel after your run . Well done to your son also for coaxing you out the door 😊😊
