Not young pupper....

4 Replies

Hiya,

Weather was cloudy this morning and not yet too warm. Decided to do my second comeback run. Ran a slow 2K in just below 20 minutes, Jeffing it at 1min30 / 0min30.

In the afternoon I walked to one of the 2 nearby towns for some groceries. Came back with the groceries and a big plant, huffing and puffing. Did some gardening after diner too.

All together I did (till now) 16830 steps and am exhausted now. But need to go to the other nearby town tomorrow morning for some shopping and I fear I will be near to death when I come home tomorrow.

Taking some flat rest tomorrow afternoon and on Monday which will be very much needed. I obviously am not a young pupper anymore (says the 41 year old)...

Cheers, Evy

Well done there Evy on your comeback! You’ve been busy. At 41 you are still a pretty young pup 🐶, Mind you I find shopping exhausting! Especially dragging it home. It’s great to see you running again 😁😁😁.

Thanks and I know I am not old yet. I just don't feel physically young anymore. If I think back to just a few years ago when me and my mom walked 2 or 3 towns further via the beach and came back through the forest, that is a LONG walk! And yes I was tired, but I was able to do it. But now, I can no longer do such a walk. I actually slept 2 hours after our walk today. And it hurts a bit to feel I can no longer do such long walks...

But I can still run 😉

You are most definitely a young pupper Hidden - they go round and round doing lots of things then flake out suddenly in a heap!

Get that rest, you've earned it (and aren't you still on holiday anyway?!)

A (shopping) walk of 14K steps today and yes I fell in a sleep afterwards... Eh yes still on holuiday 😹. But I only check my private mail and this forum and use my meditation app. No Facebook nor Instagram since my holiday started. Just did a meditation and going to continue my crochet now while watching tv 😁
