Obstacle course

[backintime]

Today I thought I'd add a new difficulty to my run 😂

[Maddee_6333 Graduate10]

😧😧😧

[backintime Graduate10]

I did a round about route today and came across it on my way back. It was either go back the way the way I came and be late for an appointment or scramble over lol

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10]

Now that is a minor problem, was it the wind that caused the trees to fall on your running route?, just hope they can clear your route soon.

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Not sure Al, it was either the wind or the weight of the conkers lol

Someone has a garden fence to repair though

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10 in reply to backintime]

Probably the wind, this coming week will also be windy, on Wednesday or Thursday they think that ex hurricane Lorenza could cause severe gales in parts of the UK, that's one to watch out for.

[Ssasqueen Graduate10]

Wow

[Stephen_UK Graduate10]

That’s a dramatic shot. How did you get over THAT?

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to Stephen_UK]

Over the end bit and under the other one...does that count as cross training ?

[Stephen_UK Graduate10 in reply to backintime]

Totally. I’d certainly be cross if that was in my way.

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to Stephen_UK]

😂

[Coddfish Graduate10]

Oh dear, hope you were able to get where you needed to go without a huge detour.

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to Coddfish]

Thanks, I scrambled over the end

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10]

Whoa! Major obstacle indeed! 😳😳😳

[Dexy5 Graduate10]

🤣🤣

[Sandraj39 Graduate10]

Oh dear!😮⛔️

[SaskAlliecat Graduate10]

Oh wow! Good for you for getting over that!

Now I’ve got the kid’s song stuck in my head but with my own lyrics (I’m constantly doing that on my runs🤣)

We’re going on a bear hunt. (We’re going on a bear hunt)

We’re going to catch the big one.(we’re going to catch the big one)

I’m not scared. (I’m not scared)

What a beautiful day!(what a beautiful day!)

Uh-oh!

A fallen tree!

Right across my path!

Can’t go around it!

Can’t go under it!

Oh no!

We’ve got to go over it.

Grunt! Grunt! Groan groan

Oh my achy bones 🤣

Sorry! I couldn't help myself. Now it will be stuck in your head too.

Great job in getting around that! That definitely counts as cross training in my books!

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to SaskAlliecat]

I know that one although we called it a "boggit" hunt. I have no idea what a boggit is but when you're young it didn't seem to matter 😂

[JaoJao Graduate10]

Exactly what I would have done, put a positive spin on it xx

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

This running lark makes for some fun adventures !

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to backintime]

Absolutely agreed! I had someone show me a beautiful running route last week smack bang in the city of London, and so there’s little surprises along the way xx and hopefully many more to come over the years x

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Yes, London has loads of hidden history too. You could read up about bits of your running route

[Irishprincess Graduate10]

Gosh, did you climb over it?

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to Irishprincess]

Just the left end of the front one and under the other bit behind it lol.

[Granspeed Graduate10]

Wowee! Major obstacle. 😳 So glad you weren’t there for the event! 😱

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to Granspeed]

Good point...me too !

[Couchpotato2]

Hard core!

[backintime Graduate10 in reply to Couchpotato2]

I was more worried about being late for my appointment...going back would have taken way longer

[Couchpotato2 in reply to backintime]

Haha very wise/crazy

[UnfitNoMore Graduate10]

And to think I’ve been worried about a few wet leaves underfoot and falling conkers! Well done getting through it and carrying on.

[Run46 Graduate10]

Wow...you taking up Parcour Backintime? 🏃‍♀️🤸‍♀️🏃‍♀️
