Oh dear RH Sorry to hear about MiL.
Lovely club run tonight - a perfect, perfect evening. The fish were jumping clean out of the water as we ran alongside the reservoir, the distant views were so clear and beautiful we passed two (separate) men who were taking photographs with tripods, fancy-pants cameras etc and in another field three beautiful horses came and very gently asked for us to stroke their noses Only one more week of off-road club runs though - boo

There was also something quite funny tonight...
From time to time the Saucony rep comes with a bootful of the latest off-road shoes and anyone who wants to have a run in them is welcome to swap their own shoes in exchange for some honest feedback (and handing them back at the end of the run.;-)) When I was doing the announcements at the start I did warn the rep that our routes tonight involved some likely deep mud. 'No problem' he said.
Well, there's a lovely clip on the club FB page of one of the groups literally knee-deep in cow-poo-rich mud - one guy not only losing his shoe but a sock as well
Anyone want some slightly shop-soiled Saucony's?

oops
youngest had a shoe sucked into a bog when we walked Kinder Scout earlier this month (his face! so, so funny ) - I was amazed at how clean said shoe came when put through a gentle wash in the machine at the cottage. Am now a convert to washing (older, maybe not my favourite) shoes.

Morning
Club run and post-run coffee/tea this morning, haircut lunchtime, mother visiting this afternoon, travelling down to the seaside tonight for a lovely long weekend (not back til Tuesday :-)).
Don't forget to do at least 10 minutes walking today (astonishing that some people aren't even doing that, according to today's news :-0)

Not surprised at all by that. If you don't like walking then it's been designed out of everyday life so there's no compulsion to.
My abs really hurt.
