‘Running’ an errand 😆

I had to go shopping for a couple of things for the kids this morning and had the bright idea last night that I could literally run the errand and get my final 5k of the week in whilst I was at it. Listening to the storm all night made me question that decision this morning, but I thought about how chuffed I’d feel afterwards and just got changed and went. The wind wasn’t that bad, it was cold and lots of debris on the paths from yesterday but nothing too harrowing. I’m pleased I went!

There’s no way that this time last year that I’d have considered running to the shops! I’m proud of who I’ve become 😊 (sorry 🤮😂)

Now that is inspiring, what a great idea, in this age of jump in the car for five minutes for a pint of milk to nip to the shops on foot will help save our planet and our bodies

Absolutely Willowandsola! I run past the shops all the time on my routes, so it was a no brainier really. It certainly won’t be the last time I do it 😊

I’m now jealous, i don’t pass any shops during running times, I’m lucky though, but next time i go into the village i will definitely walk and maybe run a bit of it as it’s not that far

Well done. A couple of Mondays ago I passed a supermarket on my warm down walk and realised I had no eggs for breakfast 😧 so popped in to get some. Was probably a bit sweaty after m y 10K run, but noone seemed to mind! 😁

[Hidden in reply to ForbiddenPlanet]

Yeah I don’t think anyone really minds. The people working in the shops probably see all sorts 😂

You really deserve to be proud. Something lovely about running as part of doing errands. Perfect. Happy running

It's very useful in the summer where you can get some shopping and stick your head in the freezer to cool off . Now that's multi tasking. Happy days 😃
