What Kind of Fool am I?

A happy one, that's what! My first consolidation run took place in heavy rain and wind - I always run on a Monday and I wasn't going to let the weather stop me.

I focused on running for 30 minutes rather than speed and was happy with the run. I was slower than last week but expected that because of the weather.

I run before my evening meal and I'm finding that I'm enjoying my food more, probably because I'm starving when I've finished! 😂 Does anyone else experience a self-satisfied glow once they've recovered? 😂

That's commitment!

Well done on getting out there in the inclement weather.

Don't focus on speed, that will change over time, keep up the 30 minutes, get your body used to it in these consolidation weeks. You are out there, a serious runner!! :) Well done!! I can't wait to be at your stage!! :)
