StandardIt’s been an intense week! Yesterday, I was at three different events between 9:30am and 2pm, and they were all fantastic in their own way, especially the long awaited Fund Her North launch which I’m involved with. That was something special indeed.
I had an eye on the weather all day though as I knew I had Run #8 of my 10 x 10km challenge scheduled.
I’m thrilled to say I completed it – a little bleary-eyed as you can see from the ‘after’ video below.
