😁 Happy Days are here again 😁

[sparky66]

Ahhh just in from a Ten Mile Run thismornin 🙏

Ooh how good does it feel to be running well again after being on the IC.. 🎊👋

Been building back after 3 weeks of chest and ear infections 🙄

Today's run felt back to my usual pace at last, thought it was never going to happen 😆

My plan before illness was to have ran my HM again by the end of the month, but considering I had 3 weeks out I'm really chuffed to have ran this today 🏃‍♀️💪

Even more chuffed to see I was only 30 seconds off my PB 👏🏃‍♀️🎊

HM here I come 🙏😁

Happy Running all 🙌

Congratulations Caroline on back running again after being on the IC for a few weeks, well done on your 10 miles run this morning, I am sure you are very pleased with yourself, that's a good time as well.Next Wednesday I intend to run 10 miles, I haven't ran that distance since last October, have a great weekend 👍 🏃🏾

[sparky66 Half Marathon in reply to AlMorr]

Hiya Alan 😃Well I think you're amazing to be planning another 10 Mile Run... Good luck 🏃🙌

[sparky66 Half Marathon in reply to AlMorr]

Elder park is getting their park run Alan, I'm going through next weekend again but it doesn't start till the Saturday after... Next time I'll run that 😃👏

[AlMorr Half Marathon in reply to sparky66]

Thanks Caroline, I'll see how it goes, that's great news that there is going to be a parkrun at Elder Park, Govan, I thought it was too small for a parkrun, probably about 5 laps with quicker runners lapping slower runners at least two times.

[AlMorr Half Marathon in reply to AlMorr]

PS, are you sure it's a 5K parkrun?, there isn't any mention of that on Elder Park Facebook page, BUT they do have a 2K JUNIOR parkrun.

[sparky66 Half Marathon in reply to AlMorr]

Found this Alan

Elder Park

[AlMorr Half Marathon in reply to sparky66]

Good news, you will look forward to running there the next time you visit your relatives in Glasgow 👍

[Beatlesforever]

Brilliant news! So happy for you, you've had a lot going on, glad it's all settling at last! Very well done, that's a brilliant 10 miler 😃🥳👏👏👏 I've been taking another break because of a cold / sinus infection. Feeling much better now so hoping to get out there soon 🤞

[sparky66 Half Marathon in reply to Beatlesforever]

Thanks Beatles, ooh I'm glad you're over yours 👏👏👏We have to be so patient don't we 😃

But it feels so rewarding when we do 🙏

Wishing you well for getting out soon 🤞👍😁

Great stuff sparky! 💪

[Frenc Half Marathon]

Yeah Sparky that’s just fantastic! So good to see you back on form. I am super pleased for you, and what a smashing time you did it in too. Made up for you.

Let me know when you’re doing the half, my turn to cheer you on from the sides. 😁😁😁⭐️⭐️⭐️

[sparky66 Half Marathon in reply to Frenc]

Thanks Frenc 😊It felt much better yesterday, I could have plodded on to reach the HM but I didn't want to push my luck 😆

Or be to stiff for my trip into town today.. going to look for some new running gear (shorts and vests) 👏👏👏

Maybe next week 😅😜🏃‍♀️

[Frenc Half Marathon in reply to sparky66]

We must be in sync I just plodded round a gazillion sports shops in Southampton - for my OH really, he needs new football boots. But I kept my eye open for stuff for me, but didn’t really see anything I liked! It’s harder walking round the shops any day than a long run! Hope you find something 😁😁😁.

[sparky66 Half Marathon in reply to Frenc]

I'm disappointed aswell, couldn't see anything I liked in town either Frenc 😟Any recommendations for online sportswear?

I've been trawling for the last week or so but not seeing what I'm looking for

[Frenc Half Marathon in reply to sparky66]

Sorry you didn’t find anything 😟. I used to quite like Fabletics online but they’re a bit expensive and a bit cheeky as you have to ‘join’ as a VIP to get a discount. Also I am NOT brave enough to wear shorts! Need some shorter leggings but they have to have pockets in the right places for phone etc on shorter runs. It’s a minefield! 😂

[sparky66 Half Marathon in reply to Frenc]

I will have a look thanks I'm the same shorts are too short 😂

Yip shorter leggings with pockets ..

We will find something... Hopefully..coz last year's ones are getting very old 😆

[Time_Lord Half Marathon]

That's brilliant, well done 👏
