Well, that's the third time over a period of 2 years that I've reached w7r1 - and each time never made it to run2... So all I need to do to impress myself and break the curse is get out there again on Friday!

It was tough on tbe motivation today though - windy, damp and dark. Then I realised my app had closed, since I forgot to take the phone off battery saver... I knew if I stopped to fix it I probably wouldn't start again, so just kept going. I had a vague milestone on distance from my last run - but when I did stop it was actually 30 mins rather than 25 according to strava. So at least I know I can run for 30, even if it wasn't ideal and no plans to do that again until week 9!!! And I missed Sarah Milligan's encouraging words!!

Hoping for some sunshine on Friday!
