Another restless night with my brain going ‘twenty to the dozen’. I was awake at 6.30 because I’d forgotten to turn off my parkrun alarm. As much as I tried I just couldn’t get back to sleep. So I got up and was at my desk by 7am. Managed to smash out four solid hours of work. I shouted myself a nanna-nap and slept until 3 which was awesome.

Grateful to public programs

Hitting the 10k mark!
Training went well. I was awake on time (6am). To make the 10k goal, I planned my route that would see me finishing at home, so I left the car at home and walked to parkrun.

Grateful for the journey
When you look back your life and you think ‘how on earth did I get here?’
A few people I’ve been reading this paste month have referred to different ‘chapters’ in one’s life. It’s sometimes easier, especially when you’re asking yourself, how did I get here, to imagine that there are different chapters. I like that analogy.
