She actually wants me dead πŸ’€

So today, for the first time I ran 25 minutes. I have to admit I nearly cried. Then she said to me to have a drink and a banana 🍌!!!

Now I have told Sarah repeatedly I’m allergic to banana and it could kill me!! So can you imagine my horror today when she told me to have a banana!!

I think I’m going to have to rethink my whole friendship with this woman 😳😳

Hopefully your running coach doesn’t want you dead

How are you getting on?

Sadly ( but secretly delighted) I’m going back to work tomorrow. So not going to be running as much.

Will run again on Monday before I start night shifts

Two of my boys wanted to be included πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

Maybe β€œbanana” could be a secret code for something ?! And we definitely don’t want you dead !! My phone suggested I type β€œbananaquit” in this message. Is that a word ? That’s got to be code, surely ?!!

Tbh most people want me dead πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ (Husband included πŸ˜‚)

So what you think banana is code word for latte and muffin?

My man is the same. Every time he remembers my parents are coming for Christmas πŸ˜† I suggest β€œbanana” is code for β€œNow you’ve earned something really delicious, so go get it !” Latte and muffin both work in that context, so it’s all good !

Most definitely!!!

Amazing isn’t it! What a transformation in such a short space of time, big well done Ibot that’s fantastic! πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Banana allergy, oh dear 🍌. Apparently that is also known as oral allergy syndrome, how unfortunate. I’ve only just started eating bananas again after 35 years of not eating them …and you know what they aren’t as bad as I remember… but I suppose my life isn’t on the line.

So the dog is clearly worn out after a 25 minute run… and the cat… is going for the sympathy vote?

Out of interest do you regularly get the urge for a cold Coca-Cola in the middle of the night? Or is that for the Champagne?πŸ₯‚

Thank you. 25 minutes!! Can you believe it 😱😱

How are you getting on my little thunderclap?

How are the new runners

β€’ in reply toIbot

Of corse I should've known... πŸ˜‚

I know 25 mins! its just three more of those then two tiny steps up, you've toats got this now!

Thunderclap sounds like some horrendous STD, I'm not keen on that nickname Ibot, you’re going to keep calling me it now aren’t you!!! 😜

Trainers are lush, super comfy, make me go like a rocket, well maybe more like the salad leaf rocket...

Aren’t rocket leaves spicy πŸ€’

Although love spice Thunderstorm πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ so many possibilities πŸ€ͺπŸ€ͺ

STD thereis cream you can get for that. Personally I recommend double πŸ™„

β€’ in reply toIbot

Yeah rocket can have a bit of zing to it I suppose... more peppery though, I’m getting the impression you like a seriously hot chili 🌢🌢🌢πŸ”₯πŸ’₯ ....now I like Thunderstorm that’s much better! βš‘οΈπŸ˜‰

Hahahahaha :D I'm always saying that mine is a ping-pong ball :D I have a mix with american staffordshire terrier and a bit of labrador. It gives pretty bouncy mixture :P

I think we will end up running everyday about 10k, somewhere in the future :P or at least in our dogs dreams :D

Mine is Jack Russel crossed with one of the following;

Pointer

Spaniel

Beagle

Meerkat

Runner beans

Ibotβ€’ in reply toIgaT

Oh yes!!

This is why I got all soppy when she called me a runner today. I looked around 😳😳 but yes she was talking to me 😊😊

IgaT profile image
IgaTGraduateβ€’ in reply toIbot

I always thought she is talking to my dog :P

You've got Sarah? I still have Laura, though the musics changed since first time round. Laura also seems banana obsessed, perhaps they have shares? Well done on 25 mins running -do you run with your dog, how does that work out. Thought of taking mine but I thinj he might pull me over if he sees a squirrel. ( I'm a newbie here)

Welcome avocado!!

Yes I run with my mutt

He is brilliant. Far better than me. I’m sure if I had 4 legs I could be better πŸ€”

I tend to go down country lanes and dirt tracks and he poodles along next to me

Does going back to work mean your ears better?

I have to ask what is Mouse's friend called? He's very cute x

Congratulations on the run xxx

Ibotβ€’ in reply toJogunlikely

Thank you

I can hear now, which is amazing!!

But not as I could before the infection, if that makes sense. I’ve still got an appointment with the consultant In Nov.

Which I’m looking forward to.

The evil fluffy thing next to Mouse is called Billy Boo. Was going to be Lucy (shortened for Lucifer) but found out like the rest of the people in my house, he ALSO has a penis πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

Hi there 😊

I'm not sure what is going on or who your friend is and why you can't eat banana. Did your friend mean an alcohol drink?

Either way, I love your little furry friends laying there looking all submissive, heehee. Enjoy your runs when you can get out, seeing as you won't be running as often. Good luck lovely x

Sarah is the 5k couch coach πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ she insists on bananas πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

They gave their moments of being lovely 😊
