Did I go to the pub? 🤔

[Jericho2332]

Good morning runners! Anyone who read yesterday's post may have spotted my choice of what to do with the rest of my day at the end... Pub or shopping!

Well as you can guess by the fact that I'm out running at 6am, I did NOT go to the pub! I also avoided going shopping 😂 I sent the family while I did some jobs in the back garden, listened to audio books, drank coffee and tea and generally had a relaxing day.

This morning after a poor sleep I went out for a 6km at 6am! It was going to be a 5k tbh but I felt that's all I've ran lately so just continued on for another few minutes. The NRC run I had on was a 30 min run so that still had plenty to go by the time I broke 5k and ended half way through my 6th. Obviously kept going to round it up. 80s music again playing to keep me going.

I found the run straight forward and at no point felt like I was trying to push for speed, just chugged along really. The last km was a little tougher as I've not done any longer distances than 5k for a few weeks, I need to start building distance again!

No pub dilemma today though I do think il end up doing some sort of shopping. Spot more garden work if my Amazon delivery comes early enough 🤞🏻

Have a great day all, happy running!

Sounds like a great set of runs and some great spontaneous post run activities! Nice one. How’s the shopping going? I haven’t bought a single present yet. ..

MisU!!! Not a thing??? Be quick, before the shops start running out of things and the queues get all along the aisles... 😁 I've done most of mine but still making Christmas cards 🤣

[MissUnderstanding Administrator Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Go you! Super impressed with home made cards. MrU was organised and bought ours a while ago. Not that any are written yet!! I’ve got a horrible virus (it feels like covid) and I haven’t been off the sofa for a couple of days. Maybe I’ll try some internet shopping tomorrow!

So sorry to hear you are laid low with a virus, so frustrating not being able to do things you want to, get better soon , and do that internet shopping ( I came out of hospital both times to a pile of internet shopped things 🤣)

Thank you! I think I'm finished 👀 waiting on 2 parcels but as long as they come before Xmas 🤞🏻 I'm done 😁

Crossing my fingers for you!

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate]

Awesome....you avoided shopping and the pub, and got up to run this morning, well done you 😁

Well done mate - just catching up (just noticed you've posted again today)! Nice to get another comfortable run under your belt with this one. Impressive time too.
