So after feeling week 7 run 3 was a slog, so much so I repeated it despite finishing it, I was slightly looking forward to my run today, although did have slight trepidation. Only 3 mintures extra but feltnthis would br a tough one. Took a different route and really felt that helped - amazing how much looking through other peoples windows as you run occupies your mind and helps pass the minutes and miles😂 Onwards to run 2

Well done for getting out and running again, every extra minute sounds terrifying until you do it and then its not so bad after all. I too find a different route helps me mostly for the reason that I get to nosey at different houses and gardens. Just a shame that all the "big houses" near me that are especially good fun to nose at are on the biggest hills too!
