What a difference 48 hours can make! Run two on Tuesday was much hard work, as documented in a previous post.

I tackled tonight’s run with enthusiasm, changed up a few things. I ran faster, dropped my arms by my side and loosened my grip on my bottle. I was holding on to it for dear life on Tuesday. It all worked, I think?!

It just goes to show that this is program is about mental strength and stamina as well as psychical.

Thank you for the support the last few days and a shout out to The Prodigy’s Jilted Generation album.

P.S. it appears the Fred Durst red cap has become a run thing. 😊

I really do! It’s amazing what dropping a few pounds and running a bit can do for your confidence. 😊

You could also lose the bottle. You shouldn't need it for a run of under an hour.

Hey, I love that bottle!!😆 To be fair, I need it once the run is over..... to pour over my head in celebration. And to drink.
