Well done Jaks & AR

I bailed on long run today. Weather was atrocious when woke up. Did 5 miles instead, including pacing friend to sub 30 parkrun, in tough conditions. Bit of a fluke as watch was still on 5 mile run so had no clue of proper pace. Chuffed for her.

Well done Kim. I just couldn’t face a slow run in that conditions so bailed and stayed in bed. Must have needed it as got up at 10.

Well done Jaks and AR.

I was marshaling at Graves parkrun in Sheffield, a hilly course. Sal ran it. I got dropped off on the way home and ran 8 miles which I'm pleased with. Sunny and windy.

And well done Kim & friend.

LG, sometimes you have to listen to your body and stay in bed.

Got up before work and did some running. Was hoping to do 5k but combination of lungs, mind and legs didn’t manage properly (legs went too fast and mind told lungs they couldn’t breathe properly) so paused a bit and then slowed down and ran a shorter distance. Did squash my bug though 😊
