Still wanting summer to come back ….

[CBDB]

Morning run, just before the heavens opened but it was dry and cool but overcast on my run. This was week 8 run 2 of my return to C25k using the app.

It all feels still quite doable, except that I took the excuse of blowing my nose halfway up the hill and at midpoint of the 28min run. But ran 5min longer due to my circular route. It feels good to be able to run continuously on my old C25k route (except for that nose blowing stop 😏).

I was running to my “Summer come back” playlist open.spotify.com/playlist/2... because I so want the summer to come back! I hadn’t had a summer holiday yet due to illness and family stuff, so feel I’ve missed out!

But so looking forward to finishing C25k, at which point I will also switch to running my winter route, which is mudproof and will get me to the last km to 5k.

Pic of my biggest apply on my only pot-bound apple tree. It had 3 huge apples this year! Autumn is here!

🍏 oh that apple looks amazing! I may turn in it into a an apple & blackberry crumble to celebrate t your run! You are within touching distance of finishing and coming out stronger than ever before. We have both missed out on Summer holidays but fortunately those wonderful seasons keep moving us forward and before we know it Summer will be back! Meantime you seem to have winter all mapped out! 💝

Apple and blackberry crumble sounds just like the right thing!

Hope we both get a doubly good vacation next summer!

Thank you! ☺️😘

Onwards ho! Won't be long till you're back on that 5K loop.

Made only my second apple mush of the season today - but loads more to come!

Happy running! (And good riddance to summer, I say! 😂😂)

Lol!

We haven’t had a summer really this year, and snow forecast on mountains of scotland this week . My apples not ready but a lot smaller than yours. Good for you continuing your C25K . X

[CBDB Graduate10 in reply to Doris8]

Snow! Oh my! Hope your autumn will be nice, still!

Thanks!

[Doris8 Graduate10 in reply to CBDB]

Think it will get a quick shift. Thank goodness far away from where we live . We might get an Indian summer (wishful thinking 🤔)

What a good run, missing out on summer sucks, let's hope we get some more nice weather, it's much cooler here already but next week's looking good 😊

[CBDB Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Yes. As Doris8 suggested. An Indian Summer in autumn would be nice!

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to CBDB]

It really would, but snow on the mountains would be stunning

My favourite time of the year... and Autumn is here earlier Summer was here, briefly and then poof, it vanished... Your apple looks beautiful!

Well done you on that run... and there will be more lovely ones to come, dry crunchy leaves, golden colours and the beauty of an Autumn morning... well, That is what I am thinking... positive thought! x
