So nearly there, so difficult still, but starting to plan routes for the consolidation runs now.. ! Today out early in the North Riding Forest Park, so we saw two pairs of deer.. the dog enjoyed chasing them. No hope of catching them.. she always stops if she gets too close even to squirrels!

I’ve given up on the audiobook and listened to Soul Classics on Spotify today.. the last two tracks of the run were Chaka Khan I’m Every Woman.. and finally Curtis Mayfield Moving On Up..! Well, I’m almost there..😊

Brilliant well done, just completed week 8 this morning. Will try and post a photo next time. Take care, and in the words of M people, "nothing can stop me"

Same here Shwood.. really hoping for that “relaxing into it” feeling one day and wondering how many consolidation runs it will need.. I’m resigned to it not happening for quite a while.. wondering if it’s even possible - but I’m not in any pain or even discomfort now after running, so it’s all positive vibes..🤞😊

Brilliant and a lovely photo! I’m at exactly the same place as you did my 9/2 very early this morning and it felt good! Looking forward to hearing all about your consolidation- after we have all clapped you home of course !
