First 5mins "why am I doing this", 2nd "just get through toxic 10", has my app stopped? Where's half way bell? Maybe it's toxic 15? Oh there's Sarah. 16 mins, ok I know I can do 20. Oh gawd I've got to cross road & cars coming. Turn around, turn around. What d'ya mean try going faster! I'm dying here! Surely my app has died. It's over? Sarah says I'm a runner. Yay me πŸ‘πŸΎ How many calories did I burn? Can I eat chocolate ? πŸ˜‚

Chocolate is soooo good for energy levels in moderation 😁

Every time then happy glow when I'm done (as well as sweaty one)

Yep - only just getting past thinking those thoughts in the last few runs, but then I buzz afterwards! You're doing just great!
