We can run, we are fitter and look a little slimmer even though we haven’t lost weight

In these uncertain times I love that we can run

Our runniversary will be 24 th April let’s hope on that day we can still run

Without the planes in the sky and less cars on the road the sky is becoming bluer the new shoots becoming greener

For anyone just starting keep going, a year ago we were a couple in our sixties who sat on the couch smoking and eating and watching tv

Keep safe and healthy all our VRB’s and thank you for all the encouragement along the way

Lovely post.

I was just reading about Venice without the tourists. Maybe we will all learn something from this mess. 🤞

Happy running.

What a beautiful picture and post. Great to see and meet you both. You are an inspiration to many. It does make bird song clearer without the aeroplanes. Let us hope we can keep running up to the date and beyond. Keep happy. 😎

Keep running guys! You’ve probably burnt up fat and put on muscle which is why you’ve not lost weight. I’m sure you feel a lot better.

I’ve only been hitting the gym the last 5 weeks (so I was gutted it closed last night), and have just started week 5 of C25k, but I’m feeling better already.

Let’s all try to make the best of a bad situation, and most importantly be kind to ourselves and each other.

Take care.
