Week 5 Run 3 NEW DAY DAWNS

So I completed this run this morning and was rewarded with a beautiful slow sunrise over the Irish Sea for my efforts, along with a calm morning and only very light winds at the coast. How did it go? Great! Was feeling tired at the end of the 15 minutes, but motivated to keep going to the end. The music definitely helped… “footloose” was the notable tune this morning just when I needed it, the tempo puts a spring in your step for sure. Anyone else feel like breaking out into a dance mid run when the music grabs you? 😂 very pleased to have completed this run, it feels like I’ve achieved another milestone this week on top of hitting my 2-stone weight-loss goal as of yesterday 😊

It is very rural, but I love the coast for exercising, it’s very relaxing, my 5 minute warm up walk takes me to the shore from my house
