So, in the good company of couchpotato2, I ventured out on a lovely, if bracing, morning. We went to our local national trust woods, for the first time in a long while. CP2 was sporting her natty new sun visor. (I wasn't brave enough to wear my eye-searingly bright new visor myself ). So, with CP2 plugged into yet another running app, we set off, hoping to run for 35 minutes. This was a recovery run for CP2, and I was just hoping to last the distance. Well, good news folks, I did it! Well, ok, I walked a little bit, and stopped to retie my laces, and cut off a corner, cunningly avoiding running down and up a slope to catch up with CP2, but I ran for 35 minutes, covering 4.5k. My Garmin gave us 4.5, while CP's app said 4.3. We have opted for the Garmin stats 😁 But, without CP, I'm not sure that I would have kept going, it was so nice to have someone there to keep me going 😊😊 The granola bar and cup of tea at the end also helped no end!
With a little help from my friend 😊 - Bridge to 10K

Brilliant GOG, sounds like a lovely run for the both of you - and post-run refreshments are always welcome! 😍

It's great to have a running buddy. You can still go at your own pace but nice to have someone to natter to over coffee afterwards.
