Hi VRBs. Didnโ€™t even think about it during the run this morning but realised just now that today was my 100th run since starting couch to 5K in May. What a milestone!...and who would believe that I could get to this point when I struggled to even run for 1 minute back then. How things have changed! Next goal is to do RED January and I have a 10 mile race to do in Feb.

My run wasnโ€™t long or particularly interesting today but being daylight it did mean that I could go out of town for a change - something I havenโ€™t been able to do since the summer!

And I got some Bone conductor headphones for Christmas which I used for the first time today which seems like a good way to celebrate the day!

Hereโ€™s a pic of beautiful Dobby in her new Christmas collar on my 100th run - she has probably joined me for around 70 of them. And without the support of you lovely people I wouldnโ€™t have made it this far - so thank you ๐Ÿ˜Š

Thank you. Yes she often comes with me and I feel safer if itโ€™s early morning and dark but she is also good company and she loves it too! ๐Ÿพ ๐Ÿ• x

Mine is being employed to drag me up the copious hills Iโ€™ll be attempting on New Years Day when I do our local parkrun double! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ•๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธโค๏ธ

Haha - they are great for helping up hills arenโ€™t they! I do find it much easier with her pulling! Although sheโ€™s not been as strong since she has been ill but Iโ€™m sure sheโ€™ll get there soon. ๐Ÿพ x

Wow, you really packed them in. I started about the same time as you but Iโ€™m only up to about the same as the dapper

looking Dobby.

I try to do about 3 runs a week Bob - although I tailed off when I was on my summer holiday - but itโ€™s hard to believe Iโ€™ve managed that many! And I will be waiting to congratulate you when you get there too! ๐Ÿ˜Š x

Well done! Itโ€™s been a difficult year and this is a triumph!!! I havenโ€™t yet worked out whether Iโ€™m at 100 or over it but now Iโ€™m on Strava itโ€™ll be a lot easier to keep track next year! Hugs to you and the dogs ๐Ÿค—

Thanks Equi. It has been a difficult year but also lots of positives. Not least starting to run! And Iโ€™ve started to look at horses too. Need a new one! Exciting times. Follow me on Strava - Louise Flower - if you like. X
