Last run was um I had to check, 15 May, not sure why but we’ve had a lot of wind and rain and oh well excuses, one day I was late home from work and the rest of the time tired and achey....that happens when I don’t run 🙄
Then on Friday we got a kitten 🐱 so working weekend taken up with work and playing with kitten and children round to introduce Collie to kitten.
so this morning we got ready, tried to put music on and found that both our watches had been logged out of music so we sat on the bed and sorted them out, out the door in the car and the batteries ran out on my headphones, oh well,
Off to the park and OMG 😳 every body else was there!!! aren’t they supposed to be at the shops cafes bars and hairdressers?
So where to go? Willow took us to the industrial estate our weekend preferred route, well fine when no one is at work, but no where to park and lorries everywhere.
Home again home again, walked through local park and started running round the roads, 20 minutes later and nearly home,
Shame it was dustbin day, in and out round the bins outside all the houses, but the birds were singing, every so often joined by Willow as his headphones still worked,
This is the first time Willow just ran round the roads so I am super pleased, the first part was mostly upwards and then once we’d headed fir home it was slightly downwards, legs felt good, breathing nice and steady and speeded up a little for second kilometre at 8.47 😀
Garmin says I’m 45 yes old and tape measure says Ive lost an inch on waist and hips 😲
Of course I have to post a kitten photo.
Happy running all

Nice run but I am so happy that you took a photo of your new kitten, she/he looks very like the kitten that my daughter got around a year ago, of course, Hero which is the name she gave to her new kitten is now a fully grown cat, have you named your new kitten?
Thanks, nothing fazes me at the moment, we don’t know why, my new glasses that should have been ready last thursday aren’t going to be ready until 7 June, ah well no matter, headphones die, no worries, park full of people and dogs, let’s just go somewhere else, we don’t know what’s happened to the usual Sola who would be....that’s not fair! Oh for ..... sake and bl..,,,people and dogs lol..... Willow says if you find her don’t send her back please
Wow that was an eventful run, well done for perseverance, so nice you got out again. Hello little kitty I’m sure you’re going to find much love and happiness in your new home. Happy running 🤗
Thanks, we lost our old cat back in early Feb and I started looking in April, Willow wasn’t sure he wanted another cat but now we have him he loves him yes we are lucky, he is so cute
Thanks it was good to be out and he’s brought a lot of joy
KITTEN! Yeah sorry, I can't remember anything you posted about your run, because: KITTEN!! And a black one too 💗. I have one 15 year old nakey cat and 1 (about) 12 year old black cat. I luuuurve cats 💗
It sounds like you've had perfectly good reasons for not running, especially getting a kitten 😺 😊 Hope the kitten / collie introduction went well. And now you've both got back out there even if you did have to hunt for a route to use. Sounds brilliant to me
The main thing was getting Willow to come out and run round the roads with me, the twenty minute runs mean we may go again tomorrow. The collie and kitten were both a bit fascinated and scared of each other but they’ve met 3 times now and seem ok with each other, the collie loves cats but their cat and my old boy weren’t at all interested in him but Parker the kitten is
Aww your kitten is so lovely! We got a rescued kitten in December who is still a really small cat. Her mum was found in an abandoned caravan that was due to get crushed and it was the workmen doing a final check that saw her with 3 kittens. The cat protection league captured them then had to go back the next day for a 4th kitten which we ended up getting. She is such a lot of fun!
Glad you enjoyed your run both of you. I don’t like running among lots of people either that’s why I go early morning before school runs and people going to work. Your kitten looks likes a little ball of fur😊
Awwwww I love cats so kitten photos are the business!!! Sounds like not your most scenic run - but at least you got out there. Happy kitten cuddling!!!
Oh dear I’m very late to the party having only just seen this! I’m glad you managed to get a decent run in despite all those people daring to be flocking to your normal running route! How on earth will you be able to get out now with that bundle of gorgeousness at home!
That’s made me feel a whole lot better.... my last run was 15th May too! We live near the sea and the wind and rain have been unbelievable, I just cannot bear to run in it.... like running into a wall 😂Glad you both got out and enjoyed your run. 👍Happy running to you too x
A double congratulations! First on the new kitten, I've lost count of the number of cats my wife and I have adopted over the years, and secondly on Mr Garmin's endorsement of your health! 😀😀😀.
