The lasagne run!

Hello lovely runners,

Christmas Eve has been a kitchen madhouse (to carols) of cooking, wrapping & visitors. When to fit a run in?? So I laid my plans - worked out that my only chance was right after I had put the lasagne in the oven. Phone rings, "Can we drop in?" asks the happy voice of my daughter's best friend just as I was putting the lasagne together- NO!! My run!!

Only one thing to do - share happy G&T time with visitors, shamelessly delay lasagne (which became interestingly curly) expect entire family to have dinner an hour late and RUN! Even better- youngest daughter came too and ran laps around me & made encouraging noises! πŸ˜ƒ

Happy Christmas to you all! πŸ˜€

I am planning to cycle, but not sure when. We have an early start so we can do stockings and breakfast before eldest daughter goes to work. I suspect the others may then crawl back to bed - if so, that's my chance!!

Have a lovely day tomorrow. πŸ˜ƒ
