Can’t wait!! I set my alarm for 5.00am so I cd run this morning and didn’t hear it - woke at 7.30 and it was too hot for me already. Maybe this evening or tomorrow morning? It IS my birthday so I deserved a liein 🤣

[ForestGrump63 60minGraduate in reply to limberlou]

Absolutely x Friday and Sunday are cooler for runs if you don’t get out today or tomorrow due to the heat, or indeed have a celebration tonight 🍾 happy birthday x

Thankyou. I am spending today with my convalescent kitty. Celebrating his first wee in the litter tray all week, without me having to drive to the vets every day just for him to wee in the cat basket and then come home. Had to put garden compost in so he thought it was like outdoors. And we have another 2 weeks of this to look forward to. He hates being on house arrest poor boy!!!

Oh my Nerys was a terror on house arrest, bless her little furry heart 💓 I’m glad he’s in the mend for your birthday x the gift of big boys wee for mummy 😂

[limberlou Graduate10 in reply to ForestGrump63]

Well we always say he has some form of Aspergers like my grandson. He hates change, has a rigid routine he sticks to, doesn’t like his food in diferent places ( which I’ve had to to add some of his meds and stop the other 3 eating it ) , always come in, eats half his food, goes out for a wee, back and eats the other half and then goes up on my bed with Mimi one side of him and Luna the other and spends the day like that. Then at 5.00 he is back downstairs tapping his paw on his watch and saying” where’s my tea Louise?”. And then out to mooch round a bit before going to sleep under his favourite bush until bedtime.

So at the moment the others are giving him a wide berth, maybe because he smells “ vetty” having been up there nearly every day last week, maybe because he is giving off a “ I don’t feel well leave me alone “vibe. So THEY are unsettled too. And he is desperate to take his bandage off and also to have a go at the other tiny sore bit on his other heel( he’s already managed to over-wash that and make it worse!!!). So I only take the cone off for him to eat and then it’s back on again.

Bless him x 💓

It’s already 2 degrees hotter than they said it was going to be yesterday

[Katnap Graduate10]

It'll be sticky once the rain stops!

I LOVE running in the rain, and I prefer Winter running, but I know I am in a minority for that.

[ForestGrump63 60minGraduate in reply to ju-ju-]

Me too! My first go at c25k was nov - January my second one was April to June and I do much prefer winter. Apart from ice of course. I can’t risk running in icy conditions

[ju-ju- Graduate10 in reply to ForestGrump63]

Ice is okay with the right surface... like woods or grass
