Bling and Bonneville !

It’s been a good week....

I received my Miles for Mind bling today after completing 25 miles during the month of May. Hope all my VRB’s have received theirs too and the little added surprise in with my medal didn’t last long. 🍭🥇

Also met Mr Hugh Bonneville (such a lovely gentleman) and basically said “it’s either me or the dog on your knee for a photo “ 📷 was all for charity and as you can see who won (she’s far cuter) no room for me (I did ask) 🤦🏼‍♀️!!!

Oh by the way this is my gorgeous sidekick called Crumble who has not helped me one bit in running the 25 miles - tried once and didn’t work, I either fell over her as she likes to sniff everything so gave up on that idea.

Have a great weekend everyone and hope the fluff makes you smile DellyDot !!!

Thank you, it’s my first ever medal for running so chuffed and all for a great charity....

Crumble is by far a cuter model and will do anything for chicken 🍗🤣📷

😊 🐾 🥰 OH!!! I LOVE the fluff!! She is gorgeous!! I am definitely smiling!! 😊

Crumble and Isla look so alike - I do see what you mean! We shall have to get them together. I think they'd just go bonkers.

Crumble is modelling your bling beautifully. I hadn't heard of Miles for Mind before coming on here. It is a brilliant idea for such a worthwhile cause. I think I'd like to sign up for the next one. A big well done to you 👏🏼🌟!

Thought that would make you smile...you didn’t see the outtake pictures 🤣 she had her tongue poking out (should have posted that one)

There is another MFM one next year so plenty of time to get ready and tell those feet to behave ! Every girl needs some bling 🥇

Can one combine Miles for Mind and Race at your Pace?

RunRunRun13 profile image
RunRunRun13Graduate in reply toMuddledGardener

I should think so, Miles for Mind only happens during the month of May but you could combine both.

Ok, so I’ll have to wait until next year! 😂

Crumble is the best dog name I’ve heard for ages! Congrats on the bling and the Bonneville photo 😃 I’m still waiting on my my bling, hopefully it’ll come tomorrow 🤞

RunRunRun13Graduate in reply toSeeJillRun

Thanks Jill, her list of potential names were all food related (Truffle, toffee etc) but she was named after my fav pudding !!! 🤣

Hope your bling has arrived today and displayed for all to see (I feel like just wearing mine whilst shopping) ha !

It’s such a cute name n she looks adorable! I love crumble too, rhubarb is my favourite 😋

No bling yet but the postie’s not due for another hour or so. I’ll be posting a pic when it gets here though 🥇

RunRunRun13Graduate in reply toSeeJillRun

aww well done RunRunRun13 you did really well, crumble was cheering you from her bed no doubt, I also tried and failed miserably to run with one of our dogs, nightmare🙈😳

RunRunRun13 profile image
RunRunRun13Graduate in reply tonotquiteretired

Thank you, yes she would still be in bed when I come back from an early run. She’s not a runner more like a squirrel sniffer, pee-up everything, stop suddenly and not a chance of running type dog ! Suppose some are and some aren’t !

Tried once and carnage 🤦🏼‍♀️🤣

Bling! Celebrity! Supercute pooch! #younailedthatphoto!!! Sounds like an excellent day all round - did you actually run to your rendezvous with Mr HB?! X

(I’m still on the IC, not run since a week last Thursday on account of Achilles... ☹️. Concerned it still won’t be better by Monday - and Race at Your Pace has been neither raced nor paced... ☹️☹️)

RunRunRun13Graduate in reply toKertesz

I didn’t run to my rendezvous with Mr B as it may have given him a fright ! You haven’t seen the state of me at the end of a run (#frazzlerock #horrormovie)

Oh no ! What a complete pain and hoping it gets better for you soon so you can get out there, not good timing at all. Just got to make sure it’s fully better before starting but keeping everything crossed for you.

I’m blinking exhausted this month and finding it hard to fit in 50 miles - done 21 so far - think it’s this muggy weather (I over heat as it is) 😅

Keep me updated x
