Yep, seriously - I passed him twice and it was definately him; glasses, red and white striped top, red woolly hat and a dog! Made me smile as I pounded away the miles this morning on my run. Over four minutes faster than my last 10 miler and dare I say it - I don't think I feel quite as shattered!! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ No falls this time (always a bonus!๐Ÿ˜‚) and such a beautiful autumn morning to be out running๐Ÿ‚๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿ. First time using my Flipbelt to carry fuel, and water as well as phone etc and despite much faffage trying to work out the best place to store everything, once organised, I really preferred this to my old belt. Definately a good buy. Hope everyone else has enjoyed their weekend runs as much as I did this one!๐Ÿ™‚

Ooh! Flipbelt, that looks nice. I've replaced my old, battered and worn out flapping about in the breeze eBay cheapie with another similarly annoying thing. I've been on the look out for something more streamlined. Might have to give a Flipbelt a go.

Excellent. That's one of those ordered then. Don't you just love the internet!?! :)

Brilliant run. That looks just perfect :)

I too was really pleasantly surprised at how comfy the flipbelt is - as an added bonus I can now wear - with confidence - some trousers that used to feel as if they were going to fall down when I was running!
