Morning all! I’ve not had a great nights sleep - worrying too much about lack of work & finances but also then the rain came lashing down!

I’ve been finding tasks to do rather than get ready for my first consolidation run since I’ve been up and about .... just posting this here to hold myself to account!

Expect a post run post before mid-day!

Aww bless you mister ..... it’s a difficult time but please don’t worry.. easier said than done..

shift work has ruined my body clock so sleep doesn’t always happen for me either...

Perhaps with not a lot of sleep try a shorter run?.. just to get out there and do..

You got this .. and we got you 👏👏

Sorry to hear about work/finances. My husband was made redundant during the lockdown so I know exactly how you feel.

These runs should help your mindset I feel, they have 100% helped me with mine during these crazy and weird times. Just having a sense of achievement and being proud of ourselves for accomplishing something challenging is what we all need right now.

You can do this run, you will feel amazing after you have done it. Let us know how you get on you can do this!💪

Totally empathise! I’m just a couples of weeks along from you, have to say that the running has been brilliant in helping to manage worries. Advice I had from Joeys86 when I was procrastinating was to get changed, go out even if for a walk, then you find you’re actually doing the run anyway. Well done for posting, it is a great motivator. I’ll be watching for your next run report, let us know how you’re doing. 👍
