I was relaxing in bed with a cuppa this morning when hubby came and said ‘rain by 10……better go now!’ So gear on, doggie attached and off we went, followed a little while later by hubby on his bike.
I have not be running very regularly due to work pressures and felt rather sluggish to start but Squiggy power helped 😊🐾🐶🏃🏻♀️. A short way onto our usual trail we came across the first tree down which required some scrambling over, then a little while later another which required a detour into the hedge to get around it! In all there were six trees across the trail! It really felt a bit like an assault course 😂 Hubby had fun lifting his bike over the large tree trunks and Squiggy enjoyed jumping over. On the way back (out and back route) it began to drizzle, then rain quite heavily so we arrived home very wet! Hubby was definitely muddier with a mud splattered face, jacket and shoes.
So a bit stop, start but a lovely 10k and glad I got out. Looking forward to several more runs during the school break. I always enjoy my runs more when I am on holiday - I feel more relaxed without the usual ‘to do’ list going round and round in my mind! 📝 Yesterday with school closed I managed to tick quite a few things off the list so that made me feel even more relaxed 😌
Happy running everyone- stay safe
