3km and little explore

Stopped from painting pretty colours on the bow of a boat by the patter of rain, I decided to go for a run in the rain. Yes me! It was warm rain though, and not even enough to wet me it turns out. Just 3km to test the hip. My back is aching (running often fixes that) it’s part of the disease and getting moving helps.

Slight niggle after 1.5km, but nothing dire.

I’ve decided the problem is the way I’ve been sitting when I’m working, so will revert to sitting in the armchair sideways, which lifts my legs a little and releases pressure on my back and hips. Unconventional, but comfy.

I’m happy with my little pootle today and discovered where another footpath goes.

Glad to hear that Baddie. And a bonus to find a new footpath

It provides a useful little link to add to or subtract from runs to alter the distance👍

I’m sure there are many people who will suffer with their joints as a result of working from home without proper officer furniture Baddie and your space is more restricted than most.

It’s good that you got out to loosen up , and a few km each day is better than none at all.

Always good to find new routes, especially at the moment. Glad the hip is behaving itself too 👍

Ahh a little restorative pootle in the warm rain. How perfect is that? 🥰🏃‍♀️

That sounded like a nice little trot out and what could be better than running in warm rain and finding somewhere new to run. Hope your back is okay?

Love it BTP! 🤩 Well done you! 🤗

A little pootle is probably my norm 😉, but I still enjoy it all the same. As long as we go out....we’re doing it!! 👌🏽✅

I bet that boat is looking pretty amazing too! 😁❤️

Glad that hip is behaving itself! Of course, now I want to know what colours you are painting the boat, my imagination is working overtime!
