Boxing Day run. Hung over and lost

Had a lovely run this morning through the countryside near my house. But hilariously got so lost. It was W9R2 and when Sarah Millican told me to keep going you only have 5 minutes left and I had no idea where I was, I was left thinking “massive run or call hubby for a lift”. I ran for 5 minutes longer than I should have then found a main road and called him.

Clearly yesterday’s booze did nothing for my sense of direction

Merry Christmas everyone anyway.

Thanks. I’m quite excited about it! Better run a route I’ve done before though ha ha.

Today I turned a corner on the track I was running and hit the east coast mainline train track. I was definitely lost ha ha

The free spirit in my glass the night before must have been the culprit!

Honestly when I saw a railway line I nearly died as I know for a fact I live nowhere near a railway line ha ha. It’s still making me laugh how far away I was.

Graduation run tomorrow and I e registered for park run so will do that soon too. Exciting
