That's 2 good runs out of 2! After month's of struggling with running continuously I did 3 miles on Saturday and 5 miles tonight (in 53 mins)....so HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!

Tonight's run with the running club was part of the winter handicap series (slow runners do 5 miles and faster ones 6 miles) and with the handicap the aim is everyone finishes around the similar time. Found it tough but I did it non stop..sod the time...NON STOP. Yay!!!! As you can tell I am really happy and just wanted to share with my running buddies.

For those that are struggling, keep on going you will come out the other side and those good runs will come back (I am proof of that!). For everyone...happy running!!!! x

I still am. I think this is one of proudest running moments (along with graduating, doing 5k) but feels like the toughest achievement!

Hope the run of good runs continues!! X
