School's Out 😁

No matter that I don't have to go into work today and didn't set the alarm - I was still awake at 5.45! So treated myself to a cup of tea in bed and then a lovely mindful 5k in cool morning sun. No records but a good stretch for the legs after a 10k at the weekend.

Quite enjoyed the fact that part of my route skirted the road I travel along to work at about the same time. The holidays have been such a long time coming this year!

So what will I do with the rest of my day? Actually I'm going into work to clear my office 😂. But that way I can enjoy lots more summer running with a clear conscience.

Hoping it stays sunny. Happy running everyone

It is fabulous isn't it. We broke up Friday, I have run twice early too as so hot, done spin and yoga.

Next a swim in the sea I think

Gone out for lunch.

Happy running

Day 1 of the holidays saw me having a lie in (till 7!), take delivery of a new washing machine, new sofa, meet with man from British Gas, see a man about a garage door, another about shutters and have a visit from my sister in law. Can you tell I’ve just moved house!? The result was I couldn’t run until the evening. Really wish I’d just gone at 7 it was so hot, I nearly caved at 3k. Still 6 weeks! Lots of running to be done I think, 😊

That'd the thing about holidays - you have to cram in all the stuff you can't do in the madness of term time.

I've got doctors opticians and hair appointments in the next two days 😂

I wake ridiculously early every day!! As well as numerous times in the night! I had a lovely cuppa and a round of toast with rhubarb and ginger jam before my run at 6 this morning! I feel so energised now!! 😀

Can't eat before I run - but rhubarb and ginger jam sounds amazing.

And love the energy you get from running first thing.

Rhubarb and ginger jam sounds amazing! Where did you get it? I can’t eat immediately before a run but it sounds like the thing I want to come home too!😊

I think I got it in Asda but can’t remember exactly! They are 2 of my favourite foods! I love ginger with dark chocolate too!!😀

Me too Sara- the waking but, not the toast and ginger and rhubarb jam 😉

Sounds good though doesn't it Flick?

in reply to DebJogsOn

Certainly does. In fact it inspired me to make toast and cashew nut butter (don’t have any rhubarb jam)

I love peanut and cashew nut butter too! I even took a peanut butter and rhubarb and ginger jam sandwich to work the other day!!! 😛
