Scheduled to run yesterday but was wiped out after work, so went this morning ... but not until nearly midday. T'was very warm 🥵 In the past I'd have not gone due to it not being my "perfect" running temperature, and would've probably gone on to convince myself that I can't do this running thing, its too hard, etc. But I've put a shed load of grit on that slippery slope and this time round C25k is all about commitment and pushing myself out of my comfort zone. Perfect weather, the perfect time of day, too many people about (ok I'm working hard on that one 🙈) does not show up in my vocabulary anymore👊 One run at a time, and slow n steady of course. Go well runny folk 🥰🦋

Absolutely Flara, just keep doing it and it becomes second nature. Perfect running weather is coming… it’s called ‘October’, and it’s got a brother called ‘March’ 😅 So good to see you back 😀
