I am so lucky living where I do that social distancing is very easy to achieve. I signed up to do a virtual Easter 10k for the Roy Castle foundation so decided to go before it gets too warm. Not all that early for some of you I know but 8.30 on Sunday morning is early enough for me. My usual 10k out and back route in 1:05:17, my happy pace. Shower and breakfast done and a Zoom dinner party with Shake-and-run planned for this evening. Happy Easter everybody!

Well done. I am also lucky enough to live in an area where it is easy to social distance. Got some bad news this morning as a friendโs brother lost his battle with the virus after being in ICU for 16 days, he was only 63 and this brings it all a bit closer to home. Happy Easter and enjoy your dinner.
So sorry to hear about your friendโs brother. I think a lot of us thought it only affected old people with underlying health conditions but we have been shown time and again over the last couple of weeks that it can take anybody. Take care xx
Thatโs so sad to hear Wg, as Sandie says, itโs becoming all to clear that this virus can affect
everyone, not those with health conditions. My condolences to you and your friend
Well done Sandie, a great run done., and it does look quiet.
A zoom dinner sounds fun. Oldgirlruns and mr & Mrs Coddfish did pre-dinner drinks on skype last week, and UTS and I wore formal dinner wear as weโve not been able to dress up for so long. That surprised everyone. Wonder what weโll wear at the next one ๐ค
2 runners, 1 cyclist, 3 dog walkers and an elderly couple out for a stroll in the sunshine were the only people I saw๐ณ
Not sure about formal dinner wear but I am going to wear a frock ๐
Judging by that photograph social distancing is very easy to achieve, congratulations on completing that virtual Easter 10K today.
Well done Sandie ๐ชand Happy Easter to you Mr S and Ben๐พ ๐ฃ๐ท๐ทxx
Happy Easter Sandie. Imagine all of this without technology......never alone with and iPad!๐
That looks lovely Sandie! These Zoom and Skype meet-ups are great fun arenโt they?! Have a great time!
Thanks OGR. Iโve never used the face to face stuff before, so am learning new tricks - like where to put the iPad or laptop so I donโt look down and end up with a double chin ๐๐
Well done, and looks idyllic where you run.
Happy Easter ๐ฃ.
Congratulations on your 10k Event. ๐๐๐And the countryside looks ideal. Paths near us are too narrow to use. โน๏ธ And have fun at your Zoom dinner party. We are having a virtual tea-share each day with our California daughter. She has her morning mug full and we have an afternoon cuppa. So grateful for the techies who figured these things out - never thought how much weโd use it! Happy Sunday. ๐๐
Thanks Granspeed. It sounds wonderful being able to โmeetโ your daughter each day. Bet you wonder why you didnโt do it before ๐ Have a good day x
Aww lovely Sandie, well done! Good plan getting that run in before it got too hot. I was out this morning too and there was almost no breeze at all. ๐ฅต
Have fun Zooming this evening. We did a family team pub quiz with Mr Cheekyโs rowing club friends last night! Total chaos, but lots of fun. Iโve also had a few choir Zoom sessions too - hmmmm! ๐๐ฎ๐ณ๐ - the time lag!!
Good one Sandie! Well done and happy Easter to you ๐ฃ๐ฃ
Well done! 8.30 is early for me too! Looks lovely where you live no leaping onto the grass avoiding people for you ๐๐
That looks lovely Sandie and Iโd love your happy pace anytime ๐ hope the dinner party went well. ๐
It was lovely, thank you! Starter, main course, cheese and dessert and 2 hours non stop chatting ๐
Lovely itโs so good to be able to get out in the countryside especially now
Nice run Sandie. Iโm looking forward to those stress free runs again.
We had a Zoom quiz with our friends on Good Friday, it was good fun! Hope you have a lovely Easter ๐ฃ xxx
Congratulations! I did the Roy Castle run too, with a friend from here - virtually of course! The medal is lovely. I was impressed with the whole event really, a very personal touch from the admin, and a nice fb group too.
