It was a goal I felt was not in my grasp yet. I had some real doubts last week about my ability to run - a couple of runs when I just had no energy and walked home after 10/12 mins of running - I was just disappointed in myself. But all the positive kicks I got from lots of people on this forum got me out there again and I ignored the negative gremlins sitting on my shoulder. My mind set today was just positive and I felt yes I can do this - I did it 🀩 and you will too. Keep on running πŸƒπŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸ‘βœ…
