I can’t quite believe we have got this far, I’m a great starter but also a giver upper.

Flaming work gets in the way I went off yesterday at 2pm and arrived home today at 3 pm having done 8,500 steps this morning on the back of a measly 2hr 47 mins sleep there is just so much to do to lock up and go to bed at a decent hour

Oh the run, no one wants to hear my work moans ...

Got home from work, cup of tea and a biscuit, into shorts tee shirt running shoes......and off we went.

It’s hot and very blowy so we chose our track because it’s surrounded by trees as apprised to the beach where we could get swept away

Slow and steady for first 5 minutes then a little sprint to catch Colin up, steady, sprint, steady was the order of the day, he seems to have found his pace which is faster than mine, the knee held up well.

We saw bouncy dogs beautiful dogs and just happy dogs, and on we ran, the last of the 28 minutes and felt like we could have plodded on for another 28 😀
