W7d3 done - slow but chuffed. Note to self: don’t drink two cups of tea before a run. A hole in the hedge, barbed wire (two strands!) and a tussle with brambles - forgot about the jacket (and therefore, me) being so noticeable to cars passing by... 😳😳

😂😂😂 sorry to laugh but your description is funny and I definitely wouldn't be able to drink 2 cups of tea before a run . But you did it. Well done you 😊

Oops! You’re right - that second cuppa was probably not the best idea you’ve had! But you’re obviously made of stronger stuff because you still got out there and did it - so well done you!
