W7R1 - Naughty but nice....

So after my blip yesterday on W6R3 I was really naughty and ran again today - and nailed the 25 mins!!! Yippee!!

I had no intention of running today but when I woke up I had no aches and pains (surprisingly) and it was a beautiful crisp and sunny morning so I just had to give it a go and prove to myself that I really could manage the 25 mins without stopping and I did! The first and last 5 mins were tough but I just kept going with my own playlist and didnt look at my watch until I got back to my gate and it was 25:36 so really pleased with that! I made a determined effort to slow down at the start and I think that helped. Only 2 more runs to really put this one to bed.....

Good luck to you all on your next run!

Thanks Steve! So much of this is a mental thing isnt it; we just dont want to be defeated by our body....
