CR3 - a first for me

My third consolidation run today - I decided to do it inside ‘on the spot’ Never done this before. There are things I now know about this kind of running.

1) don’t do it in bare feet - wear trainers always!

2) make sure toddlers toy dinosaurs are picked up - stegosaurus between the toes isn’t good on any day.

3) apparently I could run slower than I do outside - I really thought it wasn’t humanly possible.

4) getting bored of on the spotting so deciding to run round in a circle can make you feel dizzy and a little bit sick.

5) my window cleaner knows how to really embarrass me by shouting ‘go on girl’ through the closed window and ‘ere paul come and look at this’ 😳🤣

6) turn off the heating before doing this next time - if there is a next time!!!

Ooh I may do this tomorrow as I’m missing my runs and it’s too icy outside!!! Luckily I’m more likely to stand on my own sewing needles than a dinosaur but good advice there!! 🤣
