Christmas Eve 5k

4 Replies

I feel as though I am almost back to pre covid levels with another 5k towpath run. It was certainly muddier than earlier in the week and also had the distraction of the local youth tearing up and down the towpath on scrambling bikes.

Fortunately they appeared to approve of my local football shirt and banged their chests giving the thumbs up as I went past.

At times I was moving at parkrun pace which pleased me although I did feel pretty shattered afterwards.

Merry Christmas everyone and Happy Running.

Apart from those bikes I am glad that you enjoyed your Christmas Eve 5K run today, I went a short 3K run first thing this morning passing many gardens with Christmas lights shining, I wish you a very happy Christmas 🤶 🎄 🎶

Ah glad you’re feeling more normal, and pleased you did your muddy towpath run, bikes, thumbs up and all! A young man gave me the thumbs up this morning when I ran past him, I think he could tell I needed the encouragement! Merry Christmas Runforjoy 😊🌟🏃‍♀️🎄🦌.
