In the months running up to Lockdown and during that ‘strange time’ there were periods when I seemed to be running 5k every day.

Post Lockdown my running became intermittent – all or nothing.

my 2024 STORY IN BRIEF

💥 5 runs Jan 2024

💥 6 runs Feb 2024

Then nothing until May 2024 – 9 runs 💥 and the same again in June 💥 and July 💥.

One run in September 2024 one run, 3 in October and 8 in November and one in December of that year.😬

Then nothing until May 2025.😬

I remember my intention was there in January 2025. 😳😳

I remember it clearly on New Year’s Day … and the Mind Monkeys ‘Do It Tomorrow’ team kicked in. 😳

The tomorrow I talked about in January ended up being May. 😳

MAY COMEBACK?

May is my birthday month and I wondered “how would the next level Warrior Queen be in the month of May?”

She’d be running.

I ran.

I achieved a whopping 14 runs!

It all went well until week 3 run, day 2 – though! I found so many things to do that it was ‘too late’ for me to run that day. Basically, I had talked myself out of running and the momentum had completely gone.

I didn’t go. I didn’t go again on the Friday to make up for the Wednesday run, and I didn’t go on the Saturday or the Sunday …. or the Monday.

Now I was short of a week’s worth of runs.

I decided that I’d run 5 days in a row to compensate.

I did it.

And do you know on day 6, of my 5-day streak, I was almost tempted to go for a run!

What resonates with you?

How’s your intention setting going for 2025?
