πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„ Nadolig Llawen/Merry Christmas Bridge Team! Hope the holiday brings you joy in many forms, be that rest, runs or running kit from Father Christmas!

One of my favourite Christmas traditions is now a run on Christmas Day. It’s such a lovely refuge from all the craziness-thirty minutes of peace just for me. This year it might have to be a walk (still recovering from flu) but I’m hoping to sneak in a few little jogettes.

Anyone else planning on getting a Christmas run in? Maybe even at parkrun?

Have a wonderful day whatever’s on your plan! πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„

I will be doing at least 5km tomorrow. It will lessen the guilt after I stuff my face with turkey!

I wish you a very happy Christmas MissUnderstanding , I am the opposite of you regarding runs and exercises on Christmas Day, I only go a short walk with my neighbours dog Holly on Christmas Day, I don't do any running, or the other exercises I do on most other days, I ran this morning and will run on Boxing Day, this morning I ran a short 3K around the park near to where I live, on Thursday I intend to rerun run 2 of week 9 of C25K on the exact route I ran it on the 16th June 2018, so Christmas Day for me is a complete rest day , may I wish you and yours the best wishes of the season.πŸŽ„βœ…πŸ°

Enjoy your parkrun both. The only one close to me this morning is Great Yarmouth and I'm not up to that one, even at a walk, I'm cooking later it wouldn't do if I was sleeping for the rest of the day, happy Christmas from me πŸŽ„β›„πŸŽβ›„πŸŽ„

I did Medina parkrun today at home, met a lovely forum friend there too who I haven't seen in while too! Was welcome relief after a week worrying about my Dad who's still in Hospital after an infection and fall, luckily he's much better today. So daily visits til he's let out . He enjoyed seeing my parkrun photos 😁

Parkrun today in fancy dress !

After driving late on Christmas Eve (loading the car was very fiddly) and not getting to bed until 4am, I was in no fit state to run on Christmas Day itself. I was also required for various tasks during the day.

I did get a little run in this morning (just ­­– it was 11.45am) to work off a little of the gluttony of the evening before. It was 'orrible out: damp and raw, with fog in the area.

PS. The prefab sprouts were just as disgusting as normal ones.

I think a fair few of us will be doing glutton runs over the next few days!!! The weather is rhe same here-it looks like the set of a horror film. Let’s hope we get some winter sun!

Not what you're looking for?
