Running so I can eat cake

[sarah65]

Going for 8k this morning - managed 8.5 due to using Runkeeper, measuring in miles and prompting every 10 minutes - happy with that. Had 2 weeks doing the 7k so wanted to step it up. Also feeling motivated due to Cardiff Bay food festival - off to stuff my face today without feeling too guilty!!

Actually really love getting up early - it’s such a pleasure feeling that I have the park to myself on a beautiful morning

Well done sarah65 enjoy your cake, my 8k this morning turned into 9 and we are going out for a meal tonight, so I might have earned a pudding!

[sarah65 Graduate10 in reply to Berksrover]

Thanks I chose ice cream (and some bites of chocolate brownies, and fudge - I’ll have to run every day for a week to burn it off!) hope you enjoyed your pudding!

[Berksrover Graduate10 in reply to sarah65]

Sticky toffee pudding with vanilla and honeycomb ice cream!

That's the way to do it! I've been known to eat a plate of pasta and a bag of donuts after a run. Mind you, I've gone past that phase now, thankfully

[sarah65 Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Haha yes I could eat a plate of donuts if let loose!!

You've had a great run, now go and enjoy tasting some delicious offerings from the food festival.

I think our town food festival might be next weekend - it’s great to see the local restaurants showing what they can do.

I did thanks - the peanut butter ice cream was well worth the early morning run!!

[Empem Graduate10]

Nice one.I like the rewards system!

[sarah65 Graduate10 in reply to Empem]

I’m very food driven - useful feature to look out for when training dogs apparently

Well done Sarah, and I love the title of your post. I get up early to work, so getting up early to run, particularly in this heat is no bother, and I love being out early. I run so much better in the morning All the best reaching 10k.

This is the first time I've seen you post, but going by the title I already know I love you!!! 😂😂😂

Well done with progressing too! 😁
