It’s been a while since I last posted and I notice that the less I post, the less I feel involved , obviously! And therefore the less I feel quite so motivated. So here I am again! 😁
Was determined to beat the heat today, so off I set early, a nice 10 degrees, and beautiful blue skies. There were lots of little birds fluttering in and out of hedgerows, the woods were nice and cool, and I waved to all the Mrs Sheep and their lambs. I went past a local golf course and the groundsmen were already up and at it manicuring it to perfection. That’s dedication!
My last four or so runs I’ve not really been feeling it, rather just going through the motions, but today I felt a bit more like the old me. Hurrah! Just over 8k, stretches, shower, and coffee. Now I’m waiting for my porridge to do its thing.
Anyway, enough of my wittering - I hope everyone has a smashing day and manages to keep cool! 🔆🤩⭐️

Well done that looks lovely! Great you were out so early, I love that post run breakfast ! Usually I'm an evening runner. I'm the same not posting much and losing motivation . Our club has a 5mile trail run tonight and I'm hoping to go along and get some mojo back
Sometimes all the runs feel the same don't they? Nothing of note. Just more of the same great stuff! But isn't that part of the beauty of running - we keep coming back to it regardless, there must be something good in each and every run 😊
Tee hee a bit like Homer Simpson doing the same thing over and over 🤣. I did another run doh! But yes, there is definitely something good in all of them 😊.
That breakfast sounds delicious! I really need to improve my food 😁. Yes, you are so right, sometimes my posts can sound very samey and I don’t want to bore folk to tears 🤣. Am assuming you are getting out there too and having some good runs I hope! Ah of course you are! 😊
It’s definitely worth stumbling around like a zombie half awake and just hoping your sports bra isn’t on your head and your t-shirt round your ankles 🤣. Thank you!
Thank you Ian! I did feel smug when I saw people coming back from a lunchtime run at work looking VERY red 🥵. Have tried running at lunch from work and it is an unbelievable faff. I don’t have much time, so I sort of stretch under my desk afterwards 🤣.
I absolutely agree about posting and feeling involved Frenc. Much as I love running for what it is, if I had no one to tell (my family glaze over!), it wouldn’t be nearly as much fun. 😅 Even my PR buddy daughter doesn’t go on about it like it do. 😅
What a perfect run you had yesterday. Being out early is the best isn’t it (she said, having not been out early for ages 🙄).
Lol yes my other half feigns interest but draws the line when I force him to look at my routes on the laptop, me telling him that’s where I saw a squirrel or some such! Ah you can’t beat an early run, hopefully you’ll get one in soon! 😊😊😊
