A spanner in the works!

Not sure what happened last night but my stomach went into spasm and I felt dreadful , early bed. Being an insomniac I was up during the night taking on water , telling myself no run in the morning.. By the time the morning was here , I felt well but decided to take it easy and slowly . My normal run time is 6.30 - 7.00 am , this went by ....... At 8.30 am my head and body was shouting run.... So I did as I felt good and was hydrated . I ran even slower than normal and did have it in my head that at any stage I felt bad I would stop but I felt good . A great Jack the Ripper Pod cast and a lovely cool morning , gosh I felt alive . W8R3 done.. And my phone kept going with Laura and my Pod Cast , a first thanks to another poster on here......

I think that’s a good mantra if I don’t feel well I can and will stop. I really admire early morning runners I am not a morning person

I hate the thought of getting up early but I love it when I am up.. And the air feels so good early in the morning.

Well done, you're nearly there 🙂. I love a morning run but as I set off for work at 06.50, I need to be out of the door for 05.30. I got a shock Monday morning, it was still dark, gulp! I had to do an evening run which aren't quite the same when I've been on my feet all day. I love a run that gets rid of all the aches and leaves me feeling alive. Onwards and upwards, good luck with wk 9 👍

Not sure I want to run in the dark.. But I am lucky I only work 8 hours a week. Happy running.

Phew! After the first sentence I started to get worried as I am willing you over the finish line.

Hopefully you are recovered and its great you got through your run. You are one determined lady.

Even though I have graduated you are an inspiration. Thank you.

[Mrsrun Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Feel great thank you.. Not sure what is was. Thank you for your kind words, I take my inspiration from the lovely people on here who find out against the demons in their heads that they are actually runners!.. You have just made me realise , I will be a graduate soon , all being good!.. Thank you.

Oh glad your better I was the same on my second run w6 felt out of sorts the night before but I decided to run the next morning glad I did

I love running early morning it makes me feel refreshed and ready for the day 😃

[Mrsrun Graduate in reply to Mck8]

Thank you. There is something magical about morning running and as you say you are ready for the day afterwards .

Good for you MrsRun! I’m struggling to get out of bed early enough to be back, showered and at my desk for 9.

Hope you are feeling better - you are so close to the finish line!

I know I am very fortunate that I can run early in the morning , I only work 8 hours a week normally and a late start at that! The darker mornings are going to feel strange ! Happy running.
