    I love heading out really early...hearing nothing but the birds chirp and feeling like a badass in my own head while everyone is still sleeping :laugh:

    I love how running has changed my body and I can challenge myself to be better

    I love the fact that last year I would have laughed at anyone telling me I would have dont two 10k runs this year - and both completed in under 65 minutes!

    I know I love running based on how upset I was I picked up an injury and had to rest for six weeks :cry:

    running with my running community.

    the moment your breathing settles down.

    the constant battle between quitting and carrying on.

    feeling the sweat drip down my face.

    ...listening to audiobooks - sometimes I keep running because I want to know what happens next in the story! Mo Farah's autobiography was very inspiring to listen to as well.

    The downside...running past someone much younger than me in an electric wheelchair on Sunday morning. I felt like I was really rubbing her nose in it as I ran past her.

    I love how I always seem to get back to my driveway at a good part of my book so I just have to keep going some more.

    I also love hearing that little notification in my ear giving me my mileage and pace, makes me push a bit harder or ease up a bit if I met my goal for the day.

    When I run past a shop window and look at my reflection, and I think "I am REALLY running!" The girl who, a year and a half ago couldn't tie her shoes, is running for miles and miles and loving every minute of it.

    Singing and dancing like an utter loon whilst cars pass by thinking 'what the hell'.
    Switching off
    The added calories which enable me to have a gurt lush pizza, it's all about the carbs :)
