Up at 5.30 to walk the dog and out at 6.00 for run 1 week 2 a total of 2.6 miles! Not bad before breakfast. Am I the only person who looks like a beetroot after exercise?

No you're most definitely not. I think Dulux should bring out a new shade and call it something like 'Rosie Runner'

Well done for getting up and out before I was even awake 👍🏼

Always take dog out at 6.00 to give me time to get ready for work. Just decided to make it half hour early for run but my dog did go back to bed, lol!

I think it's a sign you are giving it your all. There is a special colour for menopausal woman running on hot muggy day which is way beyond beetroot.

That is so true!!😀😁😂

Nope beetroot blush is a favourite of many runners. I veer between Dulux Monarch or Salsa Red, Runningraspberrydiva liked rasberry diva so much, it became her name...

Shades of red are beautiful, they signify, sweat, grit and success

Not what you're looking for?
