I managed to get out for a 4km run on Thurs, and another one today. Slightly faster today, but I think that due to terrain rather than any increase in fitness. Finding it hard to get out there, but always feel good once it’s done. NEVER thought I’d be a runner who goes out in shorts in winter. Creates less washing 😊

Well done for getting out there. 4k is a nice distance. It feels significant enough to get into the rhythm of it. 👍

Sounds like a win to me Baddie and the warmer weather not too far away now. Keep going 👏

It was quite warm today, with a little bit of sun.

I guess your tow paths are muddy and puddly at the moment Baddie. Well done for getting out. Today I felt it was definitely spring rather than winter so I’m sure we’ll all feel like running more often and for longer. Keep up the good work.

I wore my lovely trail shoes. They are the best running shoes I’ve ever had. I feel 10ft tall in them. The paths weren’t as bad as I thought they were going to be, just the odd patch.

I don’t have a washing machine, as you probably noticed.
