So wake to the rain lashing the window..Zzzz I could just sleep a little longer..laze... Mmmm I've not ran since Tuesday.. get up Caroline!!!

Radio on.. fiddling trying to change my snapping Garmin strap..gets one side off (the side that's worn) but can't manage the other, so it now has half a pink strap half a red 😜 will have to take it to a watch repair shop later πŸ™„

Smoothie drank.. rain not improving πŸ™„

Routine Trek's me upstairs..kit on..

Head out, rain is icy and heavy.. gremlins saying ... just turn back πŸ™ˆ

Gets to my trail at 2K and decide 5K will do me today..(Gremlins still nagging) πŸ™„

By the time I get to 5K I'm soaked anyway and running brain has conquered those gremlins and decide to carry on .. by the time I splosh my way through to 7K the rain is refreshing and my upbeat tunes carry me though to finish my 10K .. just as BeeGees staying Alive plays on my cool down walk home and I feel like John Travolta strutting my stuffπŸ•Ί smiling to myself like a madwoman πŸ˜‚

Never regret a Run πŸ‘πŸ˜‚πŸ•ΊπŸŽΆπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Happy Running all πŸ™ŒπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒπŸ€©
