What a beautiful morning it was I got out early !! It was cooler and so drab as it had rained. I made it through the long πŸ’¦grass to my track. The wet legs felt great. Kept me cool !!

The gremlins crept in as I headed off on the first five minutes !! I knocked them into touch as I headed towards the half way line and then I felt great on the way back. I have got this I can do this we’re whizzing around in my head !!! Feels so good when you succeed. I run on farm tracked never see a soul. Today there was another lady walking and when she said well done I couldn’t run to save my self. I visibly swelled with pride πŸ˜‡πŸ˜€someone recognised I was running πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ!!! I even managed to mutter neither could I 10 weeks ago !!! ( I repeated weeks one and two ) such a great feeling.

Onward to Friday and then one more week to graduation !!! I can do this !

Well done, you are almost there. I always struggle with the first 5 minutes but just keep repeating in my head, you’ve got this, keep going girl. Good luck with w8r3 but I’m sure you won’t need it.

Great sounding run lovely to get some one recognising you as a runner. Cos you definitely are a runner πŸ‘πŸ˜€πŸ‘πŸ’ͺ.

Here’s to keeping the gremlins at bay forever πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ.

Doing great, well done! The first 5 minutes can be hard and I can’t wait for that half way bell πŸ˜‚ I do enjoy it but preferred it in the warm, dry weather. Can’t help but feel I’ll be a fair weather runner! πŸ€”
