Encouragement!

Wk4 R2 today. Whilst plodding along I hear a "WELL DONE" from the left. Another (clearly more experienced) runner skirted past me and waved. Man, that made me so cheery! Gave me a massive boost and was in my head for the rest of the run. It was good to see she wasn't chanking along either - just a steady measured pace. Really made all the difference today. Happy Wednesday folks 😊
