Grrr to the ICE 🧊 everywhere on the trails today , it made for a rather pants 5K trail run .

Just as I get going boom paths of ice so it’s a case of slow down go steady then back to running then boom ice again slow down and then back to it . It ruined my run mojo ..

Lots of dog walkers about today and also Horse Riders and cyclists , lovely to see everyone out and about and each of us spurring the other on to keep going and enjoy your day . Im pretty sure my running Punks T-shirt made everyone speak to me 🤣🤣. I Even hugged my fav tree Ole Red 🌲 mid run

Considering I wasn’t going to get up today I’m glad I finally got up and got our even if it was only 5K as my legs were absolutely shot from yesterdays thrusters and Squat Row…

Enjoy your Sunday Peeps

Great shirt!You're brave to be running in the ice. All that slowing down and speeding up,if you were anyone else I'd suggest you called this run a fartlek but I don't want to be a bad influence 😂😂😂😂😂

Ain’t they just . I was stupidly assuming the trails would be ok. How wrong was I .

Love that top - well done! Running on trails is often slower than the roads due to the terrain - whether it be hills, puddles, mud, tree roots, rutted fields etc - the list is endless!! You definitely have to keep your wits about you and no two runs are the same - that’s why I love it!🙂

Thanks it’s from Running Punks very apt as I once got heckled on a run and it really got to me . Don’t worry I stood my ground against him and he soon fled when I let out both barrels of swearing and anger 🤣🤣. Indeed that’s why I think running keeps me going if they were always the same I’d be bored of it

Didn’t it just . And yes I sure did . No pain no gain. Hopefully ice disappears completely this week so I can enjoy the trails again.
