This morning I was totally inspired by FlickM3 and her motivational methods to β€˜fondle Lycra’ In order to get out.

I fondled, donned and went ...and proceeded to go 8km. I meant to do 7 but I managed to pause Mr C’s watch thingy so I had to measure by landmarks and work out the distance after! So using the ye olde trusty string n map method we worked out it was an 8km *run* (more like steeple chase with the amount of massive puddles I failed to hurdle)

I love this forum, I would never have fondled my Lycra today without it!!

Happy running/fondling today πŸƒπŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸ€—

Hehehe, nothing like a quick fondle to get the day off to a puddle flying start! Well done indeed for your 8k x

Ha ha!!! Fondled Lycra?!! I like it!!! That’s a great run...I hadn’t likened it to a steeple chase before but yes, jumping over puddles when you can’t judge how deep they are is exactly that!!!

Ohhhh, I know that feeling...towards the end of my last run I was that wet I stopped bothering jumping over them & ran through them....it actually made me smile, like driving through a massive puddle in the car, I love doing that....I’ll never grow up!!! Lol x

My sisters man is a keen runner, did the London Marathon, and he told me to pack my wet shoes with newpaper. Works a treat and dries them really fast.
