Cold turkey - 2nd post grad run

[LookNannyruns]

How brave am I? Went out without ear phones, no music , no comedy , no sarah, just me and the cold wind. My head has never saved my legs , a short walk has always turned into a hike due to my useless sense of direction. Even today I thought I’d just reverse the last run and still lost my way ending up in the grounds of the local old folks home — wonder if I have a homing beacon!!

I do seriously worry about myself sometimes. Looking for park runs in my area I decided that 2 of them were too long for a beginner like me one of them being 11 miles. Yes you are ahead of me... it was only today I realised that’s how far they are away from me and that they are all 5k

If I stop posting on here please send out flares and have you seen this woman posters to all homes for the bewildered

Run Jayne run

There's got to be an app for that...or leave a trail of breadcrumbs?

Perhaps I should just keep turning left at least I would go in a circle. 🤔

[Millsie-J Graduate]

Maybe forget volunteering as a parkrun marshall just yet..... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

😀 oh yes indeed. Graduating just means I can run for 30 mins it doesn’t mean I know where I’m going!

You need a tracking device in your phone so people can find you when you go AWOL

Perhaps the vet could give me a chip, I could always wear a collar and tag. My sons wouldn’t be at all surprised to hear I’d been found miles from home 🙂

Wonderful! Every time you go out must be like having a new adventure.

[LookNannyruns Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Oh it is, I’m even worse with a map,. However tea rooms seem remarkably easy to find 🙂

Look on the bright side, if you keep getting lost, your runs will get longer and longer, and you will soon be running marathons 😆

[LookNannyruns Graduate in reply to RuthL]

That’s the only way I’d ever achieve one - completely by accident!

Drive a stake into the ground, tie a long rope round your waist and the other end to the stake.

You won't go far wrong, but may get dizzy.

Keep running, keep smiling.
