W7R1... week Seven OMG

My alarm went off at just before 5:30 and I picked up my phone, the weather said -2, and I thought NAH... I’m going back to sleep as I have no work today. It’s too cold to run, I’ll do it tomorrow.

But then as I lay there, Doris my inner runner started chirping

Why don’t you just go, why don’t you put an extra layer on if you are cold. I told her to shut up and let me sleep, but she went on and on and on... so I got up and went for a run at 6am

I’m very glad I did, it’s cold and frosty but it’s a beautiful morning and I ran further and faster than any other run, the sun coming up was just stunning today. Bit of mist on the fields and white crispy grass.

This mornings run 🏃🏻‍♀️ made me feel glad to be alive, Don’t tell Doris I said that she will never shut up 🤐

Go you! Great start to your day... Doris will be soooooo grumpy!

Ah Sazzles that sounds so wonderful, what a treat to find such a beautiful day out there waiting for you, great that Doris was able to coax you out of bed,...... shes not such a bad old stick is she? she knew what the day had in store for you. 😁
