Birthday Run

What better way to celebrate your 59th birthday than to go for a run and complete week 4 of couch to 5k. The Laura app was fairly well behaved only cut out once during last 5 min run. What I then do is restart the app and fast forward to where it stopped invariably this means I then run for longer but I don't mind.

As I have been doing all this week I followed the signposted 5k route in my Town again and added some extra walking and running to complete the course.

Sounds on the music app today included The Smiths, Oasis, Bob Dylan, Sex Pistols, Noel Gallagher Beatles and King Tubby.

Running is going well on to week 5

Onwards and Upwards!

Yes it is on the phone so I can listen to my music. It happens on every run but I don't worry too much.

I saw The Smiths play at Brighton Uni 30years ago. Happy belated birthday 🎂 to you. Great way to celebrate the occasion with a ageless run. Well done, keep it going 👍😊
