I'm still here still getting out 3 times a week for a run. Been busy getting shopping for myself , my mum who has to stay in for the 12 weeks or so and then my sister had symptoms of the virus and had to do shopping for her also which was all dropped off outside their front door. Thankfully my sister is getting better.

Weather has really improved apart from today 40-50 mph winds but so much better than the harsh winter running.

Look after yourselves and hope you ate all well😊🌞

I am running 2/5Ks a week, one of them is on a Wednesday morning around 8.45, the second one is on a Saturday morning at 9.30 around Broadwood Loch, yes, that's the same time as parkruns of course, I am keeping fine thanks, unfortunately the car park at Drumpelliier is closed but you can do your running on the new Ardrie/Bathgate cycle path.

Glad to hear it. I'm loving going running at 6 am, though I quite often need a nap later in the day.🀣

I’m so glad u said that I thought it was only me who looked like that. I see all these other runners making running look so easy and not even a glow to their face. I feel so hot I feel like I’m going to spontaneously combust 😝

Well done Buddy. I'm glad you are still managing to get out on your runs and finding time to take care of yourself; so important when your time is needed to support others. Keep safe xx

Hello Buddy, great that you’re able to stick to a running routine, stay safe πŸ™‚

Well done on keeping the routine with so many other things that are going on. Keeping that I feel is so important, even more so at this time. While we can still exercise we really must.

I’ve seen your runs on Strava, so well done for getting out there whilst you’re busy caring for your family as well. It’s good to hear your sister is recovering. This is quite a scary time - take care x

Well done Buddy on managing 3 runs a week...I'm still running but seem to be going every 3rd day for one reason or another and am walking on the other days.

Am grateful we can still get out daily and do something.

Glad your sister is on the mend, hope she's all better very soon.

My Mum and Nan are stuck in for 12 weeks too, at least it keeps them safe 😊
