Was up and out by 6.45am this morning. The only problem was I hadn't anticipated quite how dark it would be. I skirted around Morden Park looking for some dog walkers but all was pitch black so I reluctantly stuck to the road.
i managed to get past the 5 min barrier - probably as I was preoccupied with the route. Am now running for 16 minutes but still getting overtaken by fast walkers :-)
Sounds to me as if you are doing brilliantly. I don't know why you're beating yourself up so much as you are clearly both committed and successful about it all! It's good to slowly up it I suppose but you're better off not pushing too hard surely? You were up and out while it was still dark this morning, and you haven't awarded yourself any brownie points? You are massively in credit y'know!
ReplyDeleteI know about that fast-walker thing too by the way. It's not about them, it's about you though. (Well that's what I tell myself, it's about me, not them!)
