This has been another great week! Iโm absolutely blown away that Iโve covered over 93 miles on my way to John O Groats, ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ ๐ฒ and Iโm currently in Sourton Cross! ๐
Iโve been enjoying my real life tours of parks and forests in my local area and Iโve discovered that off road is definitely my very own magic feel good ingredient! ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ I donโt know why it has taken so long for the penny to really drop! ๐ณ
Iโm suddenly not afraid of winter approaching (and my traditional dip in enthusiasm as the days grow shorter ๐ฅด!!) I think this is going to be my best year yet. If I can keep this up, I think I might just make it to JOG!! ๐ฑ...๐คญ...I think! And thatโs a fabulous place to be! ๐ฆพ ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐
Happy running Runners! โค๏ธ

Thank you so much Dexy5!! ๐ค Yes, LEJOG has certainly raised the game!! I really feel that same joy of C25K!!
In fairness Iโve never followed a plan since, despite the many options to do so, but I wanted to have my time just enjoying running and making it more of a lifestyle, than a plan. All things come along at the right time, I think. And LEJOG was perfect timing. ๐โค๏ธ
This is great, Fab ๐๐. It's obviously just what to needed to inspire you. Just near to Sourton Cross there is a reservoir which is where I went for my first 'date' ( I know, a walk other than a restaurant ๐คฃ) with the man who would become my husband 26 years ago! Looking forward to more updates ๐
Aaah....thank you so much! ๐คIโm glad I stopped by there then Slinkymalinki!! How amazing ๐ฅฐ!! I knew it was a special place for me at nearly 100 miles. Fantastic to hear itโs a special place for you too!! ๐คฉ๐คฉโค๏ธ
You know...I found out yesterday that there are โhills drillsโ coming up in my Garmin plan too! ๐ฒ Hopefully, not for a couple more weeks. ๐
I found myself having to tackle one on the home stretch of my last run too!! ๐ฅด! But I made it! Good practice no doubt!! ๐คDevon watch out!! ๐๐๐โค๏ธ
Oh youโre not far behind me - Iโve the girls a few days this week so I might see you catch up. Letโs have coffee. Youโd love running around here - we have a 13 mile greenway around the town and it runs near my house. Thereโs a fancy dress run going on there today for a food charity.
Oh Sybilw!! I would absolutely love to be in a fancy dress run!! ๐๐ And your area sounds perfect for running. Iโm fortunate to live in a leafy area in the south, but I do like the open green spaces a lot. It just reminds me of how wonderfully simple things can be!! Amazing!! ๐คฉ
Iโm in Swindon, so Iโll actually be getting nearer to my real home in LEJOG soon too. Iโll ask the boys to put a flask out for you as you go by. I do hope to see you for coffee at some point, but if not, Iโll be happily running towards you and Iโll definitely be after my share of the shortbread!! ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ Enjoy your week Sybilw! ๐คโค๏ธ
Hi Fab450, pleased to hear youโre still making progress and enjoying your runs!๐โโ๏ธ
I saw you about half a mile ahead of me on the virtual A30 the other day๐ Iโm having a day off running today but Iโll be back out there tomorrow morning๐โโ๏ธ
Have a lovely day everyone and enjoy yourselves๐๐
Hey David_G!! ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ!!! Thanks so much. ๐ค Donโt forget to give me a wave as you pass through tomorrow!! ๐ Iโm not back out until Tuesday! But, Iโll be on cheerleading duty...with my feet up!! ๐
I believe we have some great weather to look forward to this week! Have fun!! ๐ โค๏ธ
This is very much your year. Bit by bit you'll get there. It all adds up and this will keep being the case because every race you have something to run for. 1 is for you because you deserve it and it's your time. 2 because you are making your way on a journey of mental and physical discovery. Keep rolling, keep consistent and you're body will adapt ever more ๐
Thanks so much GTFC!! ๐ค It certainly feels like a new discovery. Even the walks โon purposeโ are feeling great!! Just back from a walk in a beautiful park. The weather is fantastic too! ๐คฉ๐คฉโค๏ธ
