Just enjoying the running!

Two runs since graduating and I am just loving it!!

The first one a night run - luminous jacket on, head torch on (I must've looked like a right wally). It was hot and steamy, no Laura to accompany me, my own music to run to and I ran for the full 30 minutes, temperature check at the end was 32degrees! Never would I have thought I could run in that kind of temperature even a year ago!

For run 2 it was an early morning run, much fresher and I had a different running partner to Laura for a change! My lovely friend is visiting and we are going out together for the next week. The run included chatting, laughter, silly stories, a bit of healthy competition and a sprint finish with big smiles.

The next run is on the discovery of a new route and I'm already looking forward to it. Enjoy your running this weekend people!

How very great to have a friend to run with. Love the idea of the chatting, the competition and the sprint finish. Have fun :)

Well done Reidy, impressed by the night run - not something we've attempted....yet! Glad you've got someone to run with at the moment, it seems to make time pass more quickly. Best wishes for your runs next week!
