Home, safely

So there I was trotting along the seafront minding my own business and thinking that in places trail shoes would have been useful there were so many stones, shells and sand blown up by the sea. Then right above me a large flock of geese milling about looking for a place to park - We get a fair number round here all stopping on their various migrations. Which is fine but lots of birds means lots of bird.... - and I was right in the firing line! Fortunately they must all have been constipated so I got away with it - phew! And week 2 of ju-ju’s magic plan also complete so all’s well! Happy weekend running peeps!

Better in the sky than on the ground! I used to be frightened of geese as a child - can be quite aggressive. One in particular was a real psycho. 😂

And that’s before storm Dennis moves in! You have obviously decided parkrun is a complete no no tomorrow and got your run out of the way while you can. Probs very wise. You can def get wk3 done before hitting the ski slopes.

Whoop whoop 🏃‍♀️⛷👏👏

Yes, having run on Wednesday instead of Tuesday, I managed to get myself all confused about which days to run and as it’s fine today and not guaranteed tomorrow(!) - well, there’s no contest really is there?!!

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to Oldgirlruns]

No, we’ll let you know if we’re on tomorrow just in case breakfast tempts you.

When has it not.......

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10]

Oh I can’t even imagine what it must be like to be dive bombed by a goose offering! You were one lucky lady OGR! Good run. 👊🏃‍♀️👍

[Grannyhugs Graduate10]

Lucky escape there 😂😂 sounds like an Interesting place to run. Happy running

[Runnf Graduate10]

Well done on not being a moving target!

[Oldgirlruns Graduate10 in reply to Runnf]

The only problem is that at the speed I run I’m more of a static target😂!

[Buddy34 Graduate10]

Great run Ogr and glad the geese you met were as you put it 'constipated ' have a nice weekend 😊🦅🦅

[Coddfish Graduate10]

I don’t blame you getting your run in today. I would be very surprised if many brave Southsea parkrun tomorrow (assuming it’s not called off - I believe there’s going to be a course check at 8am). Thinking of having a lie-in!

[Oldgirlruns Graduate10 in reply to Coddfish]

Yes, I think it might be lie-ins all round tomorrow!

[JonathanP Graduate10]

We might escape at Lakeside - also waiting for the 8am bulletin....

The obstacles in our way....stones shells and sand are one thing, but geese? glad they were all constipated and flew away

Sounds like a very lucky run, well done 😀

[Run46 Graduate10]

Lol, I definitely thought you were going to say you got a splattering 😂, glad you avoided it!

Yes, I think we're all having areas on our runs where trail shoes would seem sensible...the weather's certainly giving us a run for our money 😏

[Comfortnotspeed Graduate10]

😂🤣😂oh my. Constipated geese. Love it 😍
