Running off chocolate (brownies)

β€’26 Replies

When a chocolate brownie is fresh from the oven, morish is probably an apt description 😬 tooooo many consumed.

Luckily today is - was run day.... Trainers on and laced off we go...

It's a tad chilly when in the shade but the sun makes up for it 🌞 the towpath was busier than of late 🧐 but most are cheery and we greet each other from afar πŸ‘. I said most..... Then there's Mr grumpy runner steaming along on a run mission, definitely looked down as he passed by he was one who wasn't altering his course 🀬 he owned the towpath.

Off passing the old golf course and the marina entrance and passed cheery walkers πŸ‘πŸ™‚.

There's more bluebells around this morning in the hedgerow, quick pause for a drink and time to loop around down hill. Back towards bridge 28aw my 7.5k mark. Fron house in the picture used to be owned by the late Dorothy Hartley, an author and painter ( well known in the village for having a tendency to paint whilst totally naked in her garden πŸ™ˆ)

Run done legs dusted off πŸ™‚

Happy Easter Monday everyone

Stay safe and healthy πŸ™

Nice run. I’m still awaiting my Bluebells to appear in my back garden. They were from my Grandmothers garden. It’s lovely to have something which was once hers reappear each year. Happy Easter Monday. I just did a scone bake. I’ll run them off tomorrow.

Isn't it just great to be out in the sunshine. You find most people want to smile or say hello but some just don't.

Are you now on your second brownie?

Happy Easter monday to you too😊

Have you seen the great big ones it's the size of a birthday cake

β€’ in reply toBuddy34

I'm torn seee because big is truly beautiful in the world of Jaffa cakes but the original ones are perfect for eating in one πŸ˜‚

You've run off those chocolate brownies very well πŸ‘πŸ‘

What a lovely place to run.

I'm just back from a run myself, and happened to see Mr. Grumpys' twin brother. Fortunately he was the only one I saw today who was head down and ignoring everyone.

Happy Easter Monday.

The chocolate brownies are all behind me now phew..... I will openly admit to wanting to hear a happy splash as he tumbled headlong into the canal πŸ™„πŸ˜‚ bit alas it never came oh well πŸ₯³

Aha, a fellow home made chocolate brownie fan! Last week I decided to limit my consumption to post PB runs only. That was after running a PB last week funnily enough. I have been IC ever since! Policy has now been varied to encompass regular supply throughout all running lay off periods. πŸ˜‹

Excellent plan everything in moderation πŸ˜‚

Brownies sounds delicious! Home made are always the best and never last more than a day in our house ☺️

The bluebells are such beautiful flowers and remind my so much of my childhood 😊

Enjoy the rest of your day xx

β€’ in reply toAliHC

Correct on both points Ali brownies can never be shop bought 😬 and bluebells they're in the same category as poppies in the wild just perfectly elegant πŸ™‚πŸ‘

Happy Easter x
