DEFINITELY! Surely there can be nothing better than hauling your butt out the door on a crisp Christmas morning in Cornwall (where I'll be) and tonking like a lunatic down a country lane!!!

I'll be in Italy and will definitely try to run off some of the tons of calories intake that will happen over Christmas ;)

I will be doing my home parkrun in Maidstone on christmas Eve and then doing Eastbourne parkrun on christmas day. I also hope to get up along beachy head while i am down at Eastbourne if its not to windy or raining or cold or ice and snowing.

Next task is to persuade the misses that i really do need to do a double parkrun on New Years day.

No run for me on Christmas Day I shouldn't think - too busy and need to be on form for the rest of the day. No run Boxing Day either I don't imagine. So Christmas Eve is a priority! Did it last year, it was great, part of the Christmas preparation, getting my head straight.

I normally would, I love running on Christmas day, I get Cambridge pretty much all to myself, but I'm intending to do the Christmas Eve parkrun, and don't normally run two days on the trot. I might have to make an exception though!

I've to fit in general Christmassy motherliness and wifeliness and also a short shift at work into Christmas Day but I'm still hoping!

ABSOLUTELY! This will be the first Christmas day in eight or nine years where I won't be going in to work.

A prospect that filled me with despondency. The Brood pay their 'duty visits' to the Outlaws Christmas afternoon (plus in fairness - they get a huge and much better Christmas dinner type thing) and I always had the 'excuse' that I was letting one of the guys off as a reward for something or other during the year.

So - feeling pretty aimless about that but now looking forward to having 'my' Christmas too running with y'all. :)
