Took a week off - but I'm back :) You've all caught up with me!

My boyfriend insisted I took a few days off and turns out he was totally right I needed the break, and to forget about running. I realised I had been using it as a distraction and it was nice to connect with myself and my thoughts and feelings for the weekend.

It turned into a week off and today I am back, back on here and back to pick up with W8R2 at a nice steady pace :)

Hope everyone is well.. looking forward to catching up on your posts!

We all have our distractions and vices. But yes. Try not to hide from yourself.

Don’t we all mate. Start writing your own.
