Week 9 run 1 and the sun shone …

[MintT]

Literally and metaphorically. I decided to try W9R1 inspired by the sunny weather. The storm that raged had finally blown itself out. Yay!

Was it easy? It was not but I’d pre decided to turn back at halfway point, usually I do the whole thing and walk back.

Headphones on I played the Foo Fighters 4 times. I needed to hear the line ‘I will never surrender’ a good few times before listening to different tracks!

Last 5 mins and I I imagined the satisfaction of pumping my fist in the air. Come on girl, you can do this. And I did!!

The cool down walk random selection U2 It’s a beautiful day, the line ‘I’m not a hopeless case’ made me smile 😃

Wowser what a picture and the sun was shining???? Sometimes the music is critical and if it fits the mood it makes the difference to your mood and capabilities. Good job done. Just two runs away from that shiny podium

Thanks. The picture wasn’t to day but as the wind we’ve been experiencing was subsiding. Glad I ran this morning though, as we went for a walk afterwards and the wind had picked up …again. Hopefully on its way out now.

Looking forward to meeting you on the podium, I don’t think you’re far off completing either.

Nope I’m close to podium too. It helps having a target wingwoman! Good luck

It really does!
