That's the colour run booked!

[Jundal]

After going for a nice gentle 4k run with the lad earlier, (never thought I'd describe a 4k run as 'nice and gentle') I've gone and booked and paid for our places in the Coalville colour run! Going to run on Tuesday and Thursday, then have a couple of days off before Sunday morning. Apparently, you get around 90 minutes for the 5k, so I think we should have enough time!

Although, with the lads performance today, give it a couple of months and I'll be gasping trying to keep up with him... Looks like I'll have to up my endurance and outlast the little tinker!

[UnfitNoMore Graduate]

Yeah, I’ve seen your stats... you could crawl it in 90 minutes 😂

Yup... keep him on 5k work and get some marathon training in 😂😂

Sounds like he’s doing great... what a great way of spending quality time together.

It was lovely actually, I was listening to 'zombies, run!' and updating him as we went on what we 'picked up' and what was about to drag us down and eat us. He did really well, but he's absolutely shattered now! And just learned that apparently one of his friends and his dad are going so we'll have some company at the other end!

Awww Jundal, how lovely that he has taken to running so readily! Something you can do together for a long time to come!

You’re right though, he’ll be whooping you upside the head before too long, like all my kids and husband do to me! 😅

[Jundal Graduate in reply to cheekychipmunks]

In speed, he could already whup me good and proper, (over longer distance, my legs are still a lot longer than his and I can zoom off when I have to, just not for very long) but with enough diligent training I'll be able to outdistance him, no matter how much effort he puts in. Simple fact is, he's eleven. Once I'm up to 10k - half marathon distances, he can tell me i'm a slow as he wants, I'll just offer to sign him up for my next race! 😂

[cheekychipmunks Graduate in reply to Jundal]

Ahh yes, you could challenge him to a race over 13 miles! He might rethink that challenge! My kids are all in their 20’s and run naturally without trying. Definitely got that from dad and not me! 🙄😅

[Jundal Graduate in reply to cheekychipmunks]

That's the one, the phrase "want to go for a PROPER run?" 😂😂😂

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate]

Well done you!!!

[Jundal Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Why thank you sir! 🤗 I shall endeavour to do us all proud.

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Jundal]

Sir? Okay..I've been called many names..but Sir😉

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

😂😂😂

[Jundal Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

I have a fairly robust vocabulary if you wish to plumb the depths of it? 😂

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Jundal]

Just, never been mistaken for a man before

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

😂 I’m literally in danger of wetting myself here!

[Jundal Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Ah... Then I shall simply apologise for not reading your bio, my ancient (yet still obviously wildly attractive) darling! 😂

[Jundal Graduate in reply to Jundal]

You do realise they do tena ladies for men, right UNM?

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Jundal]

Yeah, and they put them in the feminine hygiene section to add to any embarrassment a gentleman may already have!

[Jundal Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

And you know this how, precisely?

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Jundal]

I get sent for the girlie things a lot being the only driver in the house.

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Jundal]

I shall.. of course, forgive you! You are not the first, on here to assume I am some weird , grey haired old hermit living in a cave... !

Quite the opposite really!

I am old... and fairly weird... but..I am not grey, and I have short hair...and I don't live in a cave...

[Jundal Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Not even a 'man' cave?

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Jundal]

Nope!

[Jundal Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Everyone needs a man cave, just like every boy needs a bucket. 😊
