Running saving me from loosing the plot

Today I did my usual 5 k run. I’m missing my parkrun, but enjoy being still able to run. However, as I’m out in the middle of nowhere, I have a false sense of security. I’m now singing and dancing ( with my arms). Today I nearly got caught by some cyclist. I don’t care! Walking in sunshine, wohoa hoo! Etc. Lol. Stay safe everyone.

Anything goes nowadays so carry on. Nothing like a little jig and song when you’re out running. Anyway, the cyclist should have watched where he/she was going 🙄🙂

Me too. I love it if you just get the right track at the end of a run to do a bit of a strut to.

No just your encyclopedic knowledge of suitable music to run to. What sort of move is a pony? Must be something to do with trotting.

Chubby Chekker "Pony Time" (as seen on youtube)

Sounds just like The Twist

I did c25k away in the woods where I could sing and dance to my heart’s content. It’s free fun. Why wouldn’t you 🤷‍♀️😁

As a more mature lady I’m invisible anyway 👀

I live on my own, with a blind cat. It has advantages.

Speaking of The Who, their best running tune is Baba O’Riley (or Teenage wasteland as I call it)

It’s a belter 😃

I’m reading Pete Townsends book. Really enjoying it. So it was the who in my ear this morning for my run. All good

, but my legs rubbish as I gave blood last week and I have felt under par since. It does come back, as I’ve found before.
