Spent yesterday in blazing sunshine oiling decking - wow that was hard work! Decided to run this morning to try to loosen myself up and give new shoes their first outing ๐Ÿ˜Œ.

Thought Iโ€™d give myself a 20 mins plod after yesterdayโ€™s exertions but just carried on quite happily and 5K done โœ…. Checked Strava and 36:06 mins - Blimy ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

Happy Sunday everyone ๐Ÿค—

Nice run for you today, I am sure it was very relaxing after yesterday's exertions.

I do, very comfy but wonder if I got a bit giddy in them and they made me go a bit faster than normal ๐Ÿ˜‚

Well done! I had similar in that I spent yesterday gardening so woke up very stiff and ache-y this morning. If I hadnโ€™t joined this virtual run I might not have done it. So Iโ€™m still feeling stiff and ache-y but now smug with it ๐Ÿ˜
