Happy Boxing Day Everyone 😊

Today I did my long run... the one where I get my husband to drop me off in the car (somewhere) and I run back home 😊

Husband : So, where do you wanna go today, babe?

Me : Oh, I don't know? Just drive about 6 miles out 😂

Husband : OK 🙄

So, he drove and he drove and he drove! 😳

Husband : Is here OK? 🤔

Me : Er, yeah? 😒

Wearing my new running watch, new running top and a cheery smile, we kissed goodbye and he drove back towards home and the open fire 🔥

I pressed GO on my watch and jogged it back home through the fog and drizzle. There was something quite special about the atmosphere. Not being able to see more than a few feet in front of me was advantageous, as I couldn't see how steep or how long the road was! 😁

I thoroughly enjoyed that run! When I got home my new watch told me I'd run just over 10 miles (16k) and my husband told me he was making lunch and my son was running me a bath 😍

So I'm feeling grateful for being fit and healthy and grateful for having a loving and supportive husband and son ❤️

Enjoy your runs wherever you are and whatever stage of your journey you are at! ❤️

Congratulations, so it was a case of running home for Christmas, no, sorry, Boxing Day, I suppose its a bit of fun running in fog, not sure how that worked out, he drove you 6 miles but on your watch, when you got home that read 10 miles, perhaps you ran back a slightly longer route.

Thank you AlMorr ❤️

Ah, I told him to drive about 6 miles and he drove more than 10 miles 😂 Very naughty! But I quite like the idea of not knowing how far I've got to go! X

Wow that's some run to go on just to get lunch and a bath 🤣🤣🤣 you are so adventurous. Well done. Happy boxing day indeed.

[AliHC Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

I know! Wonder how far I have to run to get dinner! 🤣🤣🤣

[Goslow]

That’s wonderful run! I like the idea of just being dropped off 😊 and how lovely to get home with lunch and a bath being run!

[AliHC Graduate10]

I love those runs so much! I just like the idea of not knowing exactly how far I've got to go 😊

Hope all is well with you Goslow xxx

[Mum22boys Graduate10]

That sounds a fantastic idea, I'd not thought of doing that. Hope you enjoyed your very well deserved bath and lunch!

[AliHC Graduate10 in reply to Mum22boys]

I did enjoy lunch and bath, thank you Mum22boys ❤️ It was only avocado sandwiches, but I made the bread before I went out this morning 🥑🍞😂

[Mum22boys Graduate10 in reply to AliHC]

Sounds yummy!! We make our own bread too... can't beat it!!

[AliHC Graduate10 in reply to Mum22boys]

Ah, fabulous! I can't remember the last time I bought bread? Both my grandmothers used to bake their own bread and my 82 year old dad still does too 😊

[Buddy34 Graduate10]

Well you have to try out the new running gear / tech. You certainly did that.

Congratulations 😁😁

[AliHC Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

Thank you @Buddy34 ❤️

Running gear bought by my son was fab! And watch from my husband 😍 It's the first time I've been aware of my heart beat ♥️

[Irishprincess Graduate10]

I love that you do this! Very well done on your 10 miles, it’s a fabulous milestone (all 10 of them 🏃‍♀️👍) sounds a gorgeous run!

I’d love to ask my husband to drop me off somewhere but I’m just a bit nervous of where he’d actually leave me 🙈

[AliHC Graduate10 in reply to Irishprincess]

🤣 We always make a joke about where he's going to leave me, which always makes me laugh when he drives away waving 😂

[Irishprincess Graduate10 in reply to AliHC]

I can imagine 😂

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate]

Wow what a long run, peaceful and beautiful even in the lousy weather

[AliHC Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

I had no idea how far I had to run home 😊 But the fog made it quite mystical and the drizzle refreshing 😊 xxx

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to AliHC]

Sounds perfect, we ha e opted for the seafront today, picture will be here later

[Deals1 Graduate10]
