Thank you David Bowie ! W6R3 done!

Well today was the 25min run ... have taken the mindset that W6R1&2 as stamina builders rather than speed, so was looking forward to today.

Had tech issues to start ... timer went off to soon, music failed, only 1 earbud working ... thought is this an omen?? ... 2 mins into the warm up all was sorted and ready.

Set off nice and steady and got into a groove ... running good, breathing well but hadn’t heard Michael for a while and thinking tech was messed up ... put me slightly off my pace as I started to check only to hear him say I’m half way ... had lost a little bit of my rhythm though ... until on came David Bowie with The Jean Genie ... and the opening segment has a great rhythm which I started to run to ... and I never slowed or dithered on the rest of the run ... so thank you David for a timely appearance!

Feeling proud ... thinking back to W1R1 ... to here ... wouldn’t have believed it ... and Michael now says I can call myself a runner! 🏃🏻‍♂️ 🏃🏻‍♂️

Fantastic! Well done, I had the same mindset and it worked for me, too. You are now officially a runner. Congratulations, it’s an amazing achievement! Love the choice of music as well! Saw him live many years ago on the Serious Moonlight tour.

You will .... especially if the dog walker keeps asking if you’re still running when you see them !
