After a very hard week working so far….and just ‘things’ going on, I just had to get out for a run…and I am so glad I did…I was sure my head was going to explode if I didn’t!!! Running was my sanity this evening and this photo that I took just about sums up how I felt!!!! When I’d finished my run the sun was just going down & I started taking some photos…from the bridge over the canal…two ducks were flying towards the bridge, one went under the bridge and his mate flew over, right towards me and I had to duck down (pardon the pun!!!) but I got a photo just as he flew over…I love running, I absolutely love it & can't imagine my life without it 😍😍😍😍

awww, thank you Bluebirdrunner ….I had a lovely, lovely run tonight…no pressure cadence drill run, getting my feet low and light…I was awe struck when the duck flew passed my head…it looked me right in the eye!!!

I am so busy these days, what with my family and now working, I honestly don’t know how women work when their children are younger and fit everything in!!! I take my hat off to working mums around the world!! xx

that’s what I felt like…a free spirit! I was running with no pressure on time or distance, always a winner but something we all should do more often 🙂 x

thank you…I love it down by the canal..there’s a few different species of ducks and the swans are just so beautiful and gracious…and if I need some protein I can always run with my mouth open and take in a few midges 😂😂

So important to take care of you... x
