Well, I wasn't expecting that! Another Sunday run adventure 😀🐶🐿 and......

I do love my Sunday long runs. It was a very busy, but lovely weekend so I was only aiming for 10k, nice and steady along our favourite route. 😊. As usual Squiggy enjoyed chasing the pigeons and squirrels. The photo is of him jumping up a tree trunk after a squirrel!! On our return journey I had a bit of a shock. I heard an engine noise and a rumble. Can't be a lorry, too far from the road so it must be.....oh dear, an early train on the heritage line (which runs parallel to the trail)!! I called Squiggy and luckily he got back to me so I could grab his collar, just as the train passed by! I wasn't expecting that 😬.

Today I decided to try some cross training. I usually only run or walk with Squiggy but decided to try riding my bike! So I pushed the bike to the beginning of the trail, let Squiggy off the lead and off we went. It worked really well because I could keep up with him, well nearly 😉. Although I didn't get out of breath I suppose it was still good exercise. Short, hilly run tomorrow.

Happy running everyone 😀

That must have been really scary! Glad Mr Squiggs is okay x

Excellent photo.

I keep meaning to get my bike out (and failing)

[skysue16 Graduate10 in reply to Maddee_6333]

It was really good using the bike, definitely do it again. Need a better saddle though! 😂

[Maddee_6333 Graduate10 in reply to skysue16]

Good saddles are a definite must have

You were quick with that camera !!

Glad Squiggy djdn't get flattened by a train, or you !

Well done on your cross training

[skysue16 Graduate10 in reply to backintime]

Would be better with a proper camera rather than a phone but you get the idea! 😂🐿

Those squirrels don’t stand a chance! Scary moment there Sue but glad all was ok in the end 🙂

[skysue16 Graduate10 in reply to Irishprincess]

On one walk he actually managed to catch one!! 😬😕

[Irishprincess Graduate10 in reply to skysue16]

😭😭 can I borrow him for my garden so he can catch the squirrels before they start digging up my bulbs? 😂

[skysue16 Graduate10 in reply to Irishprincess]

Ha, ha he would certainly frighten them away! Run or else

[Bluebirdrunner Graduate10]

Lovely Sunday 10k Sue, and all safe and sound despite the scare! 😲

Well done on the cycling front too...good leg work.😊xxx
