Tim’s run (but walking)

[PeggySusi]

I feel like I’m cheating here as I’m not running at all at the moment, but I couldn’t let the moment pass without posting a tribute to Tim aka Iannoda Truffe. Here’s a photo from one of my favourite places, where I did much of Couchto5k once, and hope I will again one day. The woods are above Whisperdales near Scarborough, and a wonderful place to find peace and tranquillity, with yieldingly soft pine needles underfoot and birdsong above. I was there yesterday with my family, going at an easy conversational pace (walking..😂). And smiling..😊

Definitely not cheating. I think Tim would have celebrated the fact that you’re outside in nature and moving in the way that feels right for you right now. And I’m doing the same 👏

Absolutely not a cheat in sight. You got out. You walked. You smiled. That’s a massive win and a really fitting tribute to Tim. ❤️

That looks like a gorgeous place, PeggySusi ! I can almost smell the pine needles 😊

Keep walking, keep smiling!

And another one here can't run at the moment. But I walked, thought of Tim, and enjoyed the might of the river Exe thundering along beside me.

A river of support, love and thanks flowing on this forum too. I hope that will help you to smile as you remember him MadameTruffe

Looks like a magical place, I bet Scout did some running for you!

[PeggySusi Graduate in reply to Petem56]

I walked for Tim too, can't run at the moment but I wanted to do something. Beautiful photo Peggy. Walking and smiling, sounds perfect!
