Joy Run #2: Rewards 🎁
Ready, Set, Grow with Joy Runs!

How fun was last week!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who gave Joy Runs a test run. For anybody new, welcome!
Joy Runs’ theme for this week is… Rewards 🍦🍹 🛀 💐
This Week’s Joy Run: Rewards
I don’t know about you, but I got into running to enjoy more of what I love. So, every time I run, I try to do more of that.
This week’s Joy Run is about being kinder to yourself after a run.
It could be:
running to meet friends for a long-overdue catch-up
buttery-rich pastries from a local bakery
stopping at a farmer’s market
investing in colourful new running gear
a long hot bath
buying flowers for yourself
a cold one in a sunny beer garden
Basically, whatever brings you joy. After all, what’s rewarded is repeated.
My post-run treat was a trip to the new Heppni Bakeri in York for tasty pastry bombs the size of my head 🥐
Run it your way. In fact, the more varied the better. Take inspiration from the Joy Runs community on social media too.
I’m excited to see where it takes you!
Hit ‘Reply’ if you’ve any questions at all.
Here’s How It Works
Thanks for joining me on this test run (pun intended 😉).
