So this morning looked outside, rain dark cold, and thought go back to bed 🛌.

Then that Discipline kicks in,so easy to be not bothered, and thought let's do this, and my kit on and went for it, got a PB too,but went to the 10% rule and pace it to a comfortable 🏃‍♂️.

Afterwards on reflection, thought to myself next time that carnt be bothered excuse things pops in my head, I'm just gonna run as I love it.

The darker it’s getting the more my inner demon tells me to stay in bed. I force myself up and once it’s done I get an enormous amount of satisfaction. Can’t wait till spring.
