Oww my legs!

Hi everyone, Iโ€™m so pleased today is a non-running day for me today. ๐Ÿ˜Š My legs are aching from riding the motorbike up to Leicestershire and back - 5 hours on Monday then 3.5 hours back. Clearly riding takes different muscles! ๐Ÿ˜ณ Youโ€™re not just sitting there either, you use all your whole body to steer and control the bike ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ™‚ Still, itโ€™s worth it and I wouldnโ€™t change it for anything ๐Ÿ‘

Iโ€™ve been out for a walk this morning to loosen things up, and Iโ€™ll go out again later to help the recovery process ๐Ÿ˜‡

The plan is to do my second Parkrun in Croydon tomorrow as the conclusion of Post Grad week 3 ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ Then Iโ€™ll aim to move on to Bridge to 10k next week if all goes well enough.

Have a good day today if youโ€™re out running. ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ Take care, it looks as if itโ€™s going to be a very hot day again! ๐Ÿคฏ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ˜Ž

Can't imagine how hot it must be in biking gear! Good luck with your Parkrun tomorrow ๐Ÿ˜€

Thanks Saartjie, if I can beat my last time of 34:02 at tomorrowโ€™s Parkrun Iโ€™ll be a happy bunny ๐Ÿฐ

Apparently some mates are having a bbq ๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ— tomorrow so it would be rude not to go along too ๐Ÿ˜‹ Itโ€™s something to look forward to! ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘

You ache from sitting down for a bit?? What are you, a man or a mouse?? C'mon. Get a grip. We've got B210K beckoning at us from a dimly-lit doorway with promises of unforgettable pleasure. Can't do it alone. Need David there too!!

Oh Stephen, if only it were โ€œsitting down for a bitโ€! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

Donโ€™t worry, normal service will be resumed tomorrow at Parkrun! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Iโ€™ll be moving to Big School on Monday if all goes to plan, but Iโ€™ll keep visiting here to keep in touch with my many friends. ๐Ÿ™‚ Iโ€™ll keep holding the door open when I get there too, to make sure as many people as want to can join in the fun! ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜Š
