Feeling stronger

W4R2, bit of a stressful day with work and new kitchen being fitted at home.

Wasn’t gonna run as I had stuff to sort out, then I thought everything else can wait until tomorrow, I need to get out there. Am I glad I did, I smashed it and it was definitely my best run yet, I felt strong and even upped my speed for the the last 5 minute run. I’m not looking forward to tomorrow at work but I can’t wait for Saturday as it’s run day.

Thank you all, just knowing you are all here helps ❤️❤️

Michael

Well done for getting out there. Myself and my wife had the same conversation in the first 2 or 3 weeks. Horrible weather, shall we just do it tomorrow. But for us, that's a slippery slope, so we got out and did it.

Good on you for sticking with it. And you felt so much better for it too! Double bonus

Yep, get the priorities in order, I think the first 2 weeks where the hardest and think they took closer to 3 weeks to complete. Just get out I do it.

Thanks

Oh ho. I sense an incipient running addiction here. Watch out - there’s no known cure once you succumb! 🤣👏🏼
