I ran to Clapham Common and back today today. It was an absolute slog… Not enough food and water yesterday, and too thick of top when it’s 14 degrees – sweaty! I ended up tying my top up to get my tummy out to cool off! That’s a bucket list item to have enough confidenceContinue reading “21/02/21 – Long run Sunday”

07/02/21 – Snowy run!
It’s snowed all day here today. I went out for a nine mile run in it when it hadn’t yet settled on the pavements. It was wonderful, so refreshing and calm. I enjoyed all the nods of encouragement from passers by who were also out braving the elements. Later on today I devoured more ofContinue reading “07/02/21 – Snowy run!”
31/01/21 – Long run, achy legs
Decided I would head out on a slower pace today and see where it takes me. I ended up running nine miles! I’m very pleased with that. I listened to a chunk of my audio book and actually enjoyed myself. I think I’ve been pushing it too hard on every run, so I’m planning onContinue reading “31/01/21 – Long run, achy legs”
28/01/21 – I got out!
I set my alarm for 7am, raring to go for a run and… I went back to sleep. But! I ended up going at lunch and did a 29min 5k which I’m very pleased by. Most importantly because I found it tough but enjoyed it – a great way to blow off steam from work.Continue reading “28/01/21 – I got out!”
20/01/21 – Another book!
Oh dear, I’ve started a third book whilst still having two others on the go. They’re all slightly different so it’s easy enough to follow along! I just wanted a break from the other two. It’s time to get some reading done!
13/01/21 – Lunchtime rainy run
After struggling to get up before work to exercise, I finally decided to run at lunchtime instead. It worked great! It was cool and rainy, but it wasn’t dark and was very quiet. I got 5k done, but most of all it really cheered me up. Got back home, made a lush cheese and sweetcornContinue reading “13/01/21 – Lunchtime rainy run”
01/12/20 – A lucky run
Huge moon this morning! It never looks that impressive but it was all very serene as I woke up for a run. I had such a good run that I didn’t even realise a small bird pooed on my top at some point! I’ve been told it’s lucky so I’ve entered the lottery. If youContinue reading “01/12/20 – A lucky run”
18/11/20 – Morning sunshine run
Started off today with a 8km run that I only mildly had to drag myself out of bed for this morning. I’m enjoying it a lot more recently, now that I’m running for the fun of running, rather than being so competitive with myself and others. I still have a while to go yet, butContinue reading “18/11/20 – Morning sunshine run”
25/11/19 – Crunchy run
I ran my first 5k since summer’s heel injury and I feel great! Tired, but in a wonderful way. I had the day off today before heading back to London this evening – it’s been such a nice weekend being with my mum and sister (and today my nephew). I’m even more excited for ChristmasContinue reading “25/11/19 – Crunchy run”
01/03/19 – Happy face!
I ran nine miles this morning! In a big loop to the post office to pick up a package that could have been 100% posted through our letter box. But I’m still so pleased with my run! This evening I had Sharon round to see the house for the first time and have a crackingContinue reading “01/03/19 – Happy face!”
