Hidden - I didn't see you out there, but mine was just a short one - not enough sleep. I needed to get back into running, though, and a short sharp run was a good way of doing that. I took three or four days off to have a rest after the 50 mile August challenge. I know people say it's good to take breaks from time to time, but the trouble with me is that it gets all too easy to make excuses not to run if I don't keep at it. Sloth is my natural state, the couch is too comfortable and my book too interesting (not to mention the contents of the fridge), so before i know it I've sunk into lethargy and don't want to run ...

Well done getting back out there, Flick! 😊❤️🏃‍♀️

I keep trying to workout if you and Peggy are just virtual running buddies or if you really live and run near each other?🤔 (Lovely if you do!)

in reply to mountaindreamer

Ah no we don’t, she’s on e Welsh border and I’m in the Cotswolds - both hilly terrain though 😊 we are virtual running buddies x

Oh well - virtual is good too 😊 xx

Perhaps you could try to meet up for a hilly race someday...

in reply to mountaindreamer

That would be good. I’ve already met the lovely TedG . We should all have a b210k get together some time.

If we pick a hilly 10k race for that then you and Peggy will have to give me a piggyback! 😂😂❤️

in reply to mountaindreamer

Lol

in reply to mountaindreamer

Hi mountaindreamer why don’t you join us as virtual runners? If we get knackered we could all give each other piggybacks 🤣🤣🤣🤣

If you fancy it join us I’m sure Flick wouldn’t mind🤗🤗

Well if it comes with cake then I’m in! (As long I don’t have to use Strava...haven’t tried that out yet!😖) 🍰🍰🍰🍰😍😂

in reply to mountaindreamer

Your on! I use garmin mountaindreamer. I haven’t got a clue about strava. See you out there🤗🤗

in reply to

Strava is fun. Most of us are on there. There are groups connected to these forums that we all joined. It's a nice way of keeping in touch with people who don't post on here anymore, and to cheer each other on xx

in reply to mountaindreamer

Most trackers will transfer your run to Strava, so if you have one then no need to use Strava to track your runs.

that's it, the dash to the coffee shop ;)
