Second post-break run today - managed 30 minutes HURRAH!!!
Saw a squirrel which made me jump. Also isn't it a bit early for blackberries to be ripening??

squirrels make you JUMP? hopefully not into a blackberry bush.. are they really ripening? I hadn't noticed.. useful info though.. snack while you run..
They are - just round the corner from my house! The squirrel only made me jump because it appeared out of nowhere!!!
The last couple of years, I've found blackberries one of my routes from mid-July!! And that's in the centre of the city!
Hurrah for 30 minutes!
I live out in the sticks and don't normally see any til well into August. Mysterious!
A few ripe blackberries are appearing along my canal path, but they look a bit tough, too early. I think wait a bit for the sweeter ones to come out. In squirrel news, one nearly came in my bedroom window the other day - on the 2nd floor. It jumped off a nearby branch, dramatically scrabbled for a few seconds clinging to a tiny bit of window frame, then fell. I ran outside worried I'd find an injured or dead squirrel but it had gone, presumably scampered away unharmed!
