I'm too old for homework 👴

8 Replies

With no sign of school opening untill 🙄 well that's anyone's guess....... The teachers have at least been emailing homework yaaaaaaaay dad loves homework 👍. So I've completed my Spanish in good time, allowing a little run. Perfect running weather and ideal temperature. Llangollen is deserted which is weird, normally with the weather like this, the town would be bustling. I know it's becoming common to see everywhere empty of people, but it's still so weird, BUT NECESSARY👍.

Anyhow running. When I eventually found my breathing about 2k in it was a joy to be alive and running. There were more cyclists about but we all found out own space so all was good 🙂.

There's a short sharp hill where you leave the town and join the towpath but it isn't the longest thankfully.. and then it's just the nicest run back towards home, overlooking the golf course, free of little ball chasing people. ( I thought they'd have let people play golf as you can find space aplenty on the course 🤔.

The aqueduct also deserted and so serene, and stop the watch ⏱️..

Just one teeny blip if anyone has answers my Garmin is telling me I clocked 10k in 57.38 but the splits show it to be less 😶😐😤 55.09 but how?

Anyway regardless of times it was so nice to be out and running 👍

Glad you did your homework before going out for your run Ian - your teachers will be very pleased with you! If you’ve had the same weather we have here on the south coast, it must have been gorgeous!

Definitely oldgirl, much to Mrs wife's annoyance I've somehow gained a suntan ☀️

I don’t understand the ban on golf either.... when I played I didn’t even get in the way of anyone on the fairways as I rarely had a ball land on one... i did develop good skills with finding small objects in long grass/woods though!

Nice running... as for the Garmin thing, I’ve seen it before... dunno why... bad at maths?

It is very strange running around empty places... but I’m not missing the traffic when I have to drive!

Happy running.

Excellent unfitnomore, I perfected hitting a golf ball into well that area called anywhere 😁 with a tendency for water 👍

These pro types are lazy... I reckon we walked much further than they did 🤣

Lazy noooooooooooo surely you mean bone idle 😂 I mean c'mon they drive their little emissions free toy cars from hole to hole and have a personal assistant to carry their bag full of sticks around 🤭
