Good morning you fabulous runners! Guess what day it is? (If you’re anything like me, you’ll have to think about that one a bit 😂😂) It’s FRIDAY!! Which means only one thing! It’s pompom time again!!!

🥳 So, kicking off December for the first of our events are the awesome twosome  Dexy5 and  UpTheStanley who will be making their usual cheery appearance at Southampton on Sunday for the Southampton Common 10K. No doubt we can look forward to another great run report and photos from Dexy afterwards 🤗

🥳 Next up we have the incredible  Time_Lord who will be taking on another 10K, the Chasewater 10K Christmas Pudding Dash, another Sunday event. I see that dressing up is strongly suggested TL and we would love to see lots of photos please 🎄🎅🎁

Good luck everyone, Bon Courage and have lots of fun! 🍀🥳🤗🎉

Happy running UpTheStanley , Dexy5 and Time_Lord ! I do hope you can see my pompoms through the fog. They had the faintest dusting of snow this morning, but hopefully it'll have wafted away by Sunday, and not in your direction either!

Thank you Cmoi - we will watch out for French fog!

We’ve had really thick fog here too for the last few days Cmoi. This was my run yesterday in the arboretum (thought it was safer than the country roads 😱)

5 degrees, feels like 1 degree. Long sleeves and leggings I think. Brr ❄️

TailChaserMarathon in reply toDexy5

I was out in 3° feels like 2° yesterday. Tbh, it was nice to be back in it once I got going. It’s afterwards it’s 🥶. At least there’s no sea breeze there. Hat, gloves, cosy!! 😁

Thank you Irishprincess . It was definitely much chillier on our ‘easy’ 2k run this morning, but I think the Common will be warmer than our promenade. We will certainly let you know how it goes.

Have fun on your Christmas Pudding Dash Time_Lord - we could be running virtually together.

Have great runs Dexy5 , UpTheStanley and Time_Lord and remember to do a really slow first 1k….as prescribed by Coach Bennett! Snow predicted here for next Friday 🥶

Dexy5 profile image
Dexy510 Miles in reply toBeachcomber66

🐌🐌. I might even put coach Bennett’s 10k race on BC - haven’t listened to that yet.

Will you be in festive gear Dexy?

Dexy510 Miles in reply toover61andstilltrying

No, it’s not a festive run over61andstilltrying , but there may be the opportunity later in the month. 🤶

I clicked on the link and so had an inkling tat this wasn't the run that enthused you, perhaps 4 years ago. I hope that it goes really well. High enjoyment factor 😊 Now wondering if that is possible in a race!

Just saw this IP. I’ve been on a downer with my running this week and have barely even been on here.

But WOOHOO a small but select pompom shake is definitely happening here for Dexy5 UpTheStanley and Time_Lord . Go and have fun, and let’s see photos of the lovely bling. 🥳🥳🥳🥳

Sorry you’ve had a downer running week Munks ☹️ It goes like that sometimes.

Did you have that really thick fog? We couldn’t see the bottom of our garden for a few days!
