Hi Runners!

I have just come back from a long awaited run in my second home Guernsey!! It’s the second week of a last minute call to travel and it meant that I didn’t run yesterday. I had to work until late and it was too dark outside by the time I finished. So a bit frustrated, I went to bed planning to run first thing in the morning. 🤓

You know how they say you shouldn’t look at your phone first thing when you wake up? 🤨 It’s true!! 🤣 A very late email was sent last night to say could we speak sometime early in the morning? What does that mean? Who knows? 🤷🏽‍♀️ Better not run until after the call. 🤓 and then waiting for the call this morning, (with my kit on, I might add😨), that call didn’t happen. An afternoon email came, advising not required now! Hello? 👋🏽 👋🏽.... runner here!! 🤯🤣🤣🤣! Too late to run comfortably before it would be time to leave for the airport. I change and put the gear in the suitcase. Staying at a new hotel, I don’t know where I’ll run, but I hope to run. Secretly, I’m thinking I bet I’m not going to run today! 🤫 How will I fit it in? So, I’m a bit agitated! Which, I later found hilarious! Getting agitated because work is getting in the way of my runs! How dare that happen? 😍😂

But, as soon as I set my case down..... I’m in there! Running gear on. The hotel is right by the beach (perfect 👌🏽) but, it’s getting dark!!....I’m running! 🤨 And I’m out for an end of day Headspace run! And there was quite a pace on the old girl too! 3.55km in 26 minutes. Not bad for me anyway 😉. Usually Headspace runs have resulted in me running slower, (but still enjoying it a lot). But, this time, I felt strong and I felt great about getting out for my long awaited run with some sea breeze!! Bonus 🏃🏾‍♀️ by the beach at sunset. Hey, life is pretty awesome!! ❤️

Lovely view Fab! I'm planning a run in the morning but I'm still working late so not sure if I'll be up!

Oh don’t have me starting. I know the feeling too well. Hope you get out in the morning! 😉❤️

Great job finding that window to get out and do it. Nice run too

[Fabulous450 Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Thank you!! If I wasn’t going to run past my hotel I might have carried on, but it was getting really dark by the time I got back. Another day!! 😉❤️

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Fabulous450]

You’ll be back in Blighty soon... there’s always a run waiting

[Fabulous450 Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

😉 that there is!! 😁❤️

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Fabulous450]

Does that hotel do a good g&t?

[Fabulous450 Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Probably, but I didn’t have one. Water, Diet Coke and a Cappuccino!! 🤣 Yes..... all 3! I’m wild!🤣❤️

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Fabulous450]

I’m not really allowed fizzy stuff... g&t beats coke for me... though my doctor frowns about the tonic... she’s trying to get me on straight gin I think.

[Fabulous450 Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

Told you I’m wild!! I’m allowed! 🤣

Mmm...your GP sounds interesting! 😁❤️

[UnfitNoMore Graduate in reply to Fabulous450]

Maybe she frowns at the gin too, but I have selective vision 😂

[Fabulous450 Graduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

🤣! Love it! 😁❤️

[telford_mike Graduate]

Lovely when you suddenly get a chance for a run, and when we do, we run! 😀👍👍

[Fabulous450 Graduate in reply to telford_mike]

Oh yes Mike!! Truly brilliant to want to run so badly!! Had to fit it in somehow!! I probably ran quicker too so I could get back before dinner stopped being served mind! 🤣 Whatever works though! 😁❤️

Hi Red! Well done in your run in the dark! Hope you all good! ❤️

[Fabulous450 Graduate in reply to ch3lsea007]

Thank you Blue! I got back just before I could lose my way and just in time to get dinner before the restaurant closed. Tight, but achieved!! 😁😁❤️
