Such a beautiful morning for a run - bright sunshine, fluffy white clouds but a cool breeze still to stop me expiring with heat. A skylark was soaring over the field to my left and then I saw a beautiful little deer bounding along the field to my right. Such ease and grace!
In my most delusional moments, I like to imagine that I am like a gazelle leaping along as if on springs, covering the ground with elegance and speed.
We know that JuicyJu is a panther and that Dan the Man is like Fenton sprinting through the deer in Richmond Park.
But what animal do you, my running friends imagine yourself to be?

Panther also; love them and have a few panthery tattoos. I like to think of myself gliding gracefully along like a sleek, powerful panther, and not running clumsily all red and breathless in my usual manner!
I've seven tattoos in total, six of which are panthers, in various panthery poses. Those ones are on my lower legs and upper arms. So the lower leg panthers got an airing on Friday, with my running in shorts instead of jogging bottoms. I do like panthers!
I think of myself as a gazelle when I'm on the elliptical trainer! Running I'm more like an elephant (Want to be more of a Peregrine falcon or ostrich!). I'm normal life I'm a bumble bee!!!
According to Wikipedia I am a regal tang - because that's Dory from Finding Nemo "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming" (and with about as good a memory)
Personally, I aspire to patherdom but in reality I'm probably more of a moggy - same sort of idea as a panther but a whole lot slower and more easily distracted by comfy chairs and kitty treats (chocolate!)
Tiger for me. Bit heavier than a panther (matches my build), likes to swim and doesn't mind getting wet. (Any driver who has seen me doing my rain dance 10k into a long run probably thinks I'm mad but I don't care.)

Is it just me? What running kit have you bought recently? 
So ladies, what shorts do you shake your booty in?
Week 7 and just finished run 2 and sort of felt discouraged a bit
How do you measure how far you've run off-road?
Chilly wind and a little snow on the tops - so nice to be back out running (well sort of!)
