Sorry Oldfloss...❤️

I’d hoped we’d do my short 3k Fartlek-style on Wednesday round the Chester canals. Family commitments got in the way, so I’m afraid I had to switch the venue to estate pavement running this morning instead! And not even any photos for you...😩🙁

At least we got a few short sprints in for fun! (And managed not to knock over any pedestrians or get chased by any dogs!😂) Hope to take you somewhere more interesting again for Saturday’s Parkrun, then back to the Wirral Way for my 7k on Monday. 🏃‍♀️🐌🏃‍♀️😊❤️😎

Bet OF still enjoyed it MD, photos would have been a bit of a blur anyways on account of your speed, gives you time to catch your breath for Monday’s 7km. 😎

Not sure my “sprints” really end up fast enough to be too blurry, Lexi! They get progressively slower the more I do, and my recovery jogs get slower and slower as well! 😂😂😂

I enjoyed it.. I was busy with small one yesterday... she ran me off my feet.. do the sprints were welcome today!

Very well done you.. I am looking forward to the Wirral Way too..never done a park run... but the Way sounds wonderful :)

Go you!

Will make a much better effort with photos next time! This morning was a bit of a rushed blur! How long until your MRI results appointment now, Oldfloss ? 🤞❤️

:)... Well it could be a week or two more... I have an appointment with the consultant for next Thursday.. they will ring me if the results are not through!

I am currently at the coast again.. it is sunny but fresh and dry and would be perfect for running!! Walks and cycling is the name of the game though..I will take pikkies too:)

Ooo yes, do share walking and cycling pics too!😃 The coast is a great place to be whatever you are doing - always more swimming options as well if the sea’s warm enough?! I always wish I could still do handstands when I see nice sandy beaches, but think neither wrist will take those these days! 😎😊❤️🚴‍♂️⭐️🏊🏻‍♀️💦🤸‍♀️😃🌞

I swim at any time of the year... :} Lovely... a dull day means the sea feels just fine:) x
