I have been participating in Abi’s Spring Speed Challenge.

Just getting back off the IC and about to complete a repeat of C25K,just 9.3 run to do next.

Into week 4 now of SSC.What a roller coaster for me.Up sprung a sub 5 min km PR which followed a previous one km PR,on a roll ,on a quickening trend,oh my where can this novice go and where can this speed journey go.

Well first thing rejoice and celebrate.New black Clouds to be delivered, new Xr phone, still using my old iPhone 4 in hand to run with, thanks Flick for the tip,however new apple series 4 watch, so old phone’s pleading to retire has been granted.

Enjoy your successes even although they are short lived,and be ready to embrace your realities, opportunities, and get back to trucking and chasing your dream.

It just helps to get that brief taste of success even although it might be too good to be true, so generally it is🙈,so back to reality, back to keep on keeping on , back to get up get out get on and do it.

Even when you fall the magic forum is there to support you, pick you up and put you back on your running legs and ready to embrace your realities once more.

There's always a high amongst the lows on a bad day and a low amongst the highes on good days. A dirty great seagull tried to swoop/peck me and then took a giant crap on my head about an hour ago, just as I was enjoying the last 1km of a seafront recovery jog. I must play the lottery this week...

This was my strava training tip today, in a similar vein - 'Roll with It

You must be ready to roll with the punches. Not every run, workout or race will go as planned. Short-term memory loss helps after those days.' 🤣

👍🤣 yes indeed. An instructor once said to me "if you drop a clanger, leave it behind you" he was right, as hard as it is to let go...

Every run I make...is a blessing...sounds hackneyed...but is absolutely true... every single one..whatever pace..distance..or speed.

For me.. this says it all..

" There will be a day when I can no longer run...Today, is not that day."

Go you ...!
