Booked a running jaunt 😃🏃‍♀️

[misswobble]

I was soaking my blistered feet last night as my husband kindly bought me a sack of Epsom Salts 😇 when my phoned pinged. It was my niece telling me that the virtual Orsted Great Grimsby race she’d booked and paid for was back on, after she’d thought she couldn’t run it due to injury. She’s paid for the race, medal and tee so was very upset as it was her first ever10k race.

Anyway, she wants me to run it with her so my husband (again 😇😇) coughed up for an overnight hotel stay and I’ll be joining her to run on Sunday 18th October 🤗🤗

Getting those new shoes yesterday was portentous 😁

Wonderful news! It was clearly meant to be. Now just to get those blisters sorted!!!

A sack of Epsom salts and still up for more - wow, can’t knock your enthusiasm 🤣 Good luck 👍

Try toe socks ? It sorted my blister issue right out.

Ooooooohhhhhh! How awesome. What a lovely first run for her. I ran from Grimsby to Immingham yesterday and the Dock Tower and lights looked fantastic. What a great way to bed in the shoes 😊😊😊

[misswobble Marathon in reply to Hidden]

Great stuff! Interesting places! The dock tower is beautiful!

Have you run on Spurn Point ? Sandy as I recall 🏖

[Hidden in reply to misswobble]

Oooooh. No I haven't.

It’s a really interesting place. The journey there is lovely too. There’s even a cafe
