Second 30 minute consolidation run

I think today is going to be a good day..😊

Gorgeous blue sky but beautifully cool for an early morning run.. so after a lazy last few days, today we managed to get up and out on the old railway track by 6.30am.. We ran north to start with, accompanied by the occasional scent of honeysuckle, with a very slight up incline for the first half, making the return a tad easier.. And it is definitely getting a little bit easier, a little bit quicker, and I might even be starting to enjoy it..😊

To add to the joy today, one daughter is driving over for a socially distanced lunch and a natter in the garden.. it will be so good to see her in person instead of on a screen...😊

Great run Peggy - sounds like you're on a roll! Lovely to see family even if so ially distanced. I had socially distant picnic in the park yesterday with my daughter and her partner. It was absolute bliss although i got scorched by the sun. We didn't realise how long we were out!

Similarly perfect day here.. and I’ve caught the sun too.. just red on one carelessly exposed shoulder.. 😊..this current situation has been good in a way by making us value all these special moments so much..😊

I agree, It was a good morning for a run . I left at 7am and it was already at creeping up to 15. Not good for me :(

I managed my 5K maintenance run.

I’m sure we’re all looking forwards to a Parkrun - even if it’s just to prove this programme really does work , no matter how old you are , how fat or thin , health issues, bad knees or feet - we adjust to our needs and all make it in the end. :)

Runners we are :) 🌟
