Spent yesterday in blazing sunshine oiling decking - wow that was hard work! Decided to run this morning to try to loosen myself up and give new shoes their first outing 😌.

Thought I’d give myself a 20 mins plod after yesterday’s exertions but just carried on quite happily and 5K done ✅. Checked Strava and 36:06 mins - Blimy 🏃‍♀️

Happy Sunday everyone 🤗

I do, very comfy but wonder if I got a bit giddy in them and they made me go a bit faster than normal 😂

Well done! I had similar in that I spent yesterday gardening so woke up very stiff and ache-y this morning. If I hadn’t joined this virtual run I might not have done it. So I’m still feeling stiff and ache-y but now smug with it 😁

Same, if I hadn’t wanted to take part in this Virtual 5K I might not have gone out also was very glad I did!
