…getting me through a cool and soggy W5R1.

I really felt like I might bail on this one this morning, particularly as my husband was up at 4 to catch a flight and I didn’t sleep properly after that. But I gave myself a good talking to, channelled my inner Mummycav (I seem to remember from way back that you quite like running in the rain, along a canal path?) and got on with it!

3 x 5 mins done, and looking forward to the mix-up of week 5.

Now off to have a warm shower and put some fluffy socks on ☺️

Nice shoes!! If it was me I wouldn't have wanted to get them wet and would have stayed in bed 😂😂😂

Well done you for getting out there and running. Maybe I should try channelling Mummycav too but I think I'm too old and grumpy for that!

We all love new shoes!! Well done for getting out, I have had a super busy week and not managed a single run which is so annoying as I had got into a groove but hey we get times like that x
