Does anyone else spend their time running along composing posts for this site 😁. They never get posted but it’s sort of enjoyable. Today’s imaginary post included the tree creeper (it’s a little bird) I saw and I found week7 run1 harder than week6 run3 which are both 25mins.

Oh it’s become a real postπŸ€¨πŸ˜‚

Yes πŸ˜‚ I’m looking around taking in the scenery, thinking about how I’m running, what have I learnt...like you say, most of it doesn’t get posted but it all adds to the run 😁

That’s the way to bring your gems and find your gems you need from this amazing forum.πŸŒŸπŸ‘πŸ‘

Plus you are consolidating your learning and maybe producing a record or diary also of your unique and special journey.πŸ€”

Wandering mind Clarrie and a wonderful mind also.πŸŒŸπŸ‘πŸ‘

I am truly finding this ME time and quality thinking time on all sorts of stuff during these training runs.πŸ€”πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Keeps me happy , maybe not the boss so much.πŸ€”πŸ™ˆπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Definitely, I write witty, eloquent masterpieces that fly away as soon as I get back indoors!

Definately! Unfortunately I usually forget the best bits by the time I post! πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

Every run. In my head I write epic, funny, eloquent posts which all disappear long before I've logged in here.

I would probably get locked up if I actually posted what I think about on a run 😏

Absolutely i do! Like many others I’ve often forgotten half of it before I get home and actually write my post, but it helps to pass the time ;)

And I for one am very glad you told us about the treecreeper! I keep looking out for my local kingfisher when I run along the river, but have only ever seen him once (while I was walking)...

We have kingfishers on the canal but in nearly 18 years living here I haven’t seen one yet.

Quite often it's stuff like "No - you can't stop now - you're out here and if you stop you can't go back in and write "I did it!"." Amazing how that can keep me going even when running uphill and into a gale....
