W1R3 this morning. It was a challenge to get out of bed - I was going to delay it until tomorrow but I checked the weather and saw that it will be raining tomorrow and that is enough excuse not to go so I got up and did it today. Back before 8.

I had to extend one of the 60 second runs as a man was out with 3 dogs and he kindly stopped and held them for me to pass, which probably took me longer than he anticipated. I couldn't stop and walk when he had been so considerate so I kept up the run until I was well past him. I still managed the speedy finish though.

I'm ready for next week, which might start on Saturday.

Oh Sheps you are amazing! Yes I agree no rainy runs needed at this stage of winter! 🥶 One of the gifts 🎁 of running is meeting kindly folk along the way.. it always makes my day! So well done and hope the next one is great! 👍 😁

Brilliant run! I find the mental challenge harder than the physical one, too. Keep going.
