Little soggy now but that’s week two underway. Found this little horse abandoned in the middle of a rainy path couldn’t bring myself to leave him there so he joined me for a bit of a gallop round the park

Thanks I’ll have to keep my eye out for other things to rescue. I read a novel for book club called the keeper of lost things so as long as I don’t end up like that 😁

Great for starting wk2. You'll now have to take your friend on every run. Well done you 😊😊🐎🐎

Sadly I do feel it would be rude to leave him at home. 55 and still love toys x

I have a penny that I found on my first warm up walk on holiday in London that now stays in my joggers for my long runs : )

Cool I think the little might be a bit too big for my pocket but I’ll find a little place for him xx

Sounds like you’re a little hoarse after your run 😁 Well done that’s Week 2 started. Great commitment running in the rain. I shall emulate you this morning. Enjoy your rest day

Good luck I actually don’t mind the rain as long as it’s not torrential x

It’s the glasses fogging up that bothers me as it’s difficult seeing where to place my feet in the dark. I’ll get some new batteries for head torch for next run. Strangely enjoy running in the rain. Only thing I found this morning was contentment. Loved it. Bring on Thursday. Have a good day

Yay well done and yes glasses are a pain I normally run in contacts but did wear my glasses yesterday

Vegout25Graduate in reply to DottyF

Thanks. Body was a bit stiff after last night’s 2hr badminton but now feel great. Have disposable contact lens but can’t read with them so have remove for work. Doesn’t seem cost effective wearing them for an hour. It’s a Catch22. Think I’ll try wearing baseball cap🤓 to protect them on next run
