Cold's over, back on the hills.

Haven't run since a week ago, because I had a cold, so I thought I'd do a short one. So then I thought, well, might as well go local. I know, I'll run up that nasty hill over there, across the field, and down and up and down the hill back to the start. Simple. Ha! That's the way to take it easy while recovering from a cold. Here's the elevation. Ah well, it's character building. And something is happening in my glutes too 😂

Thanks UNM, it wasn't the wisest thing I'd ever done, but I must have got a lot stronger to be able to get away with it. Even Mr grumpy was impressed 😁

Why thank you wimborne, I shall accept it graciously. Although I can't actually see it on my phone 😯 How are you getting on?

Oh no. It’s a very good bow as well. Ask me in a few weeks how I am getting on..... I am hoping to be back on my feet by then or at least able to move without crutches 😀

Wish I could see it! Oh crikey, they say patience is a virtue, you're really having to test it out. I'm sure it's making you stronger 💪
