Great day for a run...

It's sunny, calm and 15 degrees here today. I had planned to up my 6K to 9K today which would see me run around the lake three times. Half way into my second circuit I had talked myself out of a third one. I had lots of reasons, I was getting a bit tired, there was a wee niggle in my lower back, it was almost lunch time etc etc....somehow managed to counteract my negative thoughts and complete the 9K. Kept my very slow pace and did it in 61 minutes. Now going out to make mincemeat of the veggie plot - no rest for the wicked ;)

Well done! Don't listen to negative thoughts. Better still dispense with them completely, they are no good for this caper.

8 degrees, wet and windy here and my veg plot is not calling me today. Well it is, but I'm not listening unless the rain stops. If it calms down I shall be mostly sowing beetroot

Have fun!
