Put running gear on before going downstairs, normally read papers, coffee then think about running. Now it is warmer I need to get out earlier. I was out by 8 and think it is time move out of thermal leggings! It was hot but I did it. I was very slow and tempted to quit the last minute of the second 5 min run but did not. I can now do 16 minutes of running. It really is a feel good factor.

I know that if I get downstairs without putting my running gear on, I won't be going running. It seems to be the way things go in this house. So it is always, out of bed and into my kit. I can then do a few other things before getting out of the door but I will at least get out.

Well done for your 16 minutes today. enjoy the warmer weather. I wish it would get warmer here.
