I really thought I’d struggle with this one, it’s been really warm today and I just wasn’t feeling it, felt so under prepared, even nodded off on the sofa after dinner 😂

Anyways it was my easiest run yet, it felt so comfortable, like I’ve been doing it for years, I even ran my furthest yet at 2.9km ☺️ 🏃🏻‍♂️

I love this! It's a funny old game, felt the same with that same run as I was a bit under the weather, turned out to be my favourite run to date, managed it comfortably. Today, W7R2, I was really up for it, looking forward to the run and it was really tough! An iPod malfunction at the beginning didn't help tbf 😬 However, still managed it. Good luck with the next one 😀

Similar thing here Dtay1978, This has been my favourite run so far, and I NEVER thought I could say “my favourite run” till today lol. Felt quite comfortable and didn’t struggle. And bonus! So far not seized up!

It did help that I went early to avoid the heat though. Also followed lovely Laura’s advice and tried a different trail to run today.
