Quick! Someone call a doctor!

I’d like to know what happened to the old me?? Woke up this morning to snow, and my inner child loves the snow, but my first thought was ‘ Hang on, this can do one, it’s week 8 run 2 today’ I certainly wasn’t expecting to be like this when I started 8 weeks back! I’m sat here planning where it will be best to run today! I think I have somewhere where it’s quite sheltered so less lying snow. And I will be very very careful! But I’ll be out there shortly!

Just back! It was fine, not too bad at all! I knew if I ran by the canal it wouldn’t be too slippy as it’s a rough surface, and it was lovely running in the snow!

I bet! I am envious, it hardly ever snows where I live!! Glad you enjoyed it xxx

Thanks! We don’t get it often either really. And, it looks like you may have the sea to look at, and I’d rather have that than a bit of snow every now and then! So we are all square on the envy stakes! 😂 xx

Tell me about it! 8 weeks ago, that would definitely have not happened!

Definitely sounds like you’ve caught the run bug! 🐛✨

And in the cold/ice/snow you deserve a double award! 🌟 Keep going, almost there!

Thank you! Just finished W8R3 this morning! Again, quite icy, but very enjoyable! And if i do what I’ve always done since the start, Saturday, Tuesday and Thursday, then I should graduate next Thursday!
