Running Bingo Card for Richard7

[Dexy5]

Have fun. I failed to do a running streak because I had the virtual vitality and juju’s plan that month , and I didn’t cool off in the sea although I did run in the rain.

Forgot to tag Richard7

Love that running Bingo card! 🙏 (I originally erroneously typed “Live that running bingo card” which makes also sense! 😃)

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to CBDB]

It did give a new meaning to running in October. I don’t do social media, but lots of people were posting their pics, so it gave a big lift.

[Richard7 Graduate10]

Love it Dexy5 thanks for the post. I will have a bash at making my own. I would give yours a try but Derbyshire does not allow cooling off in the sea 😉. Will have to Google "Plogging".

There is of course the odd river you could dunk in !

This is the link to my plogging post

Thanks - I also found the RUNR Bingo Card online and can read it a bit better - was trying on my mobile earlier and it was a little blurry!! I now see the Sea/Stream reference better!! Sounds like it could be fun - dangling my feet in the canal might be tricky but I know of a stream that goes past part of one of my routes 😉

This is great thank you! I am adapting it to suit my exercise regime at the moment... my new mantra right now? Lose the 'not: Find the 'can'!

Hope all is well with you

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to Oldfloss]

Yes , you CAN do this Oldfloss, and you can put whatever you like on it, so long as it includes a few things that you’ve never done before.

My mantra was on the journey to 10k - “You have done this before, you can do it again”

We are doing well thank you, but not liking the loss of our Southsea “social distanced get togethers “. I know that’s nothing compared to what others are suffering, but it has helped us get through this.

I love the idea of Strava Art !! Did a bit of that myself. It must have looked strange to anyone watching me run random angles and loops and doubling back on myself in the park - but then I assume no one was watching !!

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to Juliet202]

🤣 mine was not too ambitious, but I do have a new one in mind, and one day when I have a lone jogette I will put this into action.

[Forest_Run_Beginner Graduate10]

Thank you for sharing this Dexy5, it looks like great fun and a wonderful extra motivator to get you running. I might well have a go and doing one myself, although may try next month and see if I can incorporate some festive ideas into it! Hmmm, now you've got my old brain whirring 🤔😁

[Richard7 Graduate10 in reply to Forest_Run_Beginner]

Do share what you come up with Forest_Run_Beginner

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to Forest_Run_Beginner]

Oh yes when you’ve come up with it, put it in here as a challenge for us all. No pressure 😂😂

[Forest_Run_Beginner Graduate10 in reply to Dexy5]

It will have to be good now, won't it

I will definitely share it though, thank you for the encouragement.

Thank you for making me smile on a late lunch break 😁 Dexy what a great idea 👍although I think that a canal is my only local waterway similarly to Richard7 😬 will have to give the bingo a go with a minor amendment ....

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to Littleoyellow]

Yes I decided that soaking wet feet after a rainy run made up for me not taking a post run dip.

💦☔️🏃‍♀️💦

[Littleoyellow Graduate10 in reply to Dexy5]

Great alternative 😂

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate]

That’s really great isn’t it

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

It helped get me out of the door W&S. it was also linked with running so many miles in the month and fundraising for Mind, so win win.

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Dexy5]

A big win

[Wimborne]

I love this but what is ‘plogging’?... can I buy it? I like buying things 😂

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to Wimborne]

There’s a link in my response to Richard, Wimborne. It’s picking up litter while jogging. I recommend you use gardening gloves or a pick up stick if you do it.

Have you got your vitality T-shirt and medal?

[Wimborne in reply to Dexy5]

Would never have guessed litter picking ! And yes it arrived today 🏅😍.

[Elfe5 60minGraduate in reply to Dexy5]

....and here’s me imagining it involved running in squelchy mud!! 😂- That must be plodging!

Fun bingo card Dexy.😄

Although I’m dubious about dipping in the North Sea at the end of a run in Winter. 🥶

I did once leap in a mountain tarn on a very hot day in the Lakes & happily walked & evaporated for the following few hours. 😄

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to Elfe5]

I bet those mountain tarns are pretty cold too 🥶

[Elfe5 60minGraduate in reply to Dexy5]

Yes it was - but tramping up hill on a hot day made it sooooo tempting. 😄

[Frizzbomb67 Graduate10]

Love the idea of cooling off in a river after a run but the best I can do is a Black Country canal (AKA the Cut) and I think that would be a health hazard 🤢🤒😂

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to Frizzbomb67]

Oh dear, splash in a puddle instead. 🤣🤣
