The wrong pants & revelation

Long time lurker, infrequent poster I thought I would check in just to assure anyone who might care I haven't died. I am attempting, again, to get to 10k. I have done 9k outside & 10 on the treadmill (I know) but both times stopped in the middle so doesn't really count.

Anyway today I did a wee 5k. Beautiful morning, saw a fox which always thrills me, sun splitting the trees and I am wearing THE most annoying pants ever. They looked innocuous enough, by no means exotic, fairly standard. Who knew they were bottom creepers? Not me clearly. That, dear friends, is today's excuse for not going further. πŸ™„ The revelation is, maybe I'm a sprinter! Really need to up my game & actually do some intervals and strength work to improve my fitness but I am soooooooo lazy. Decided to do a few sprints after my run. Explosive in more ways than one. But fun! Have a great weekend lovely fellow runners.😊
