ITG makes me 😂 laugh. If I remember correctly, a few days ago, she was telling us about how she was “pumping.”
I thought 💭 at the time she was referring to bicycle tyres, but now I’m not so sure.👍

Fragile Do Not Bend
I wish I could drag myself out of bed for an early run, especially as I’d like to take advantage of the cooler early temperatures on the days it’s going to be warm. It takes me a couple of hours after waking up to feel human enough to run, mostly because I always wake up feeling dehydrated.

Morning :-) just

bunting NDWD 700

ITG DS4 is 9 years younger than his nearest sibling, and 15 yeras younger than his eldest, weirdly it was only once he hit his teens that the age difference became an isssue, (his brothers startetd getting girlfreinds and wives, somethinng he wasn't able to join in with)

Whilst I wouldn't recommend it, parenting is far more relaxed, probably a little to relaxed at times.

Body blast, took ds1 to work and then drove a little further for a little trot round Pirbright, then did virtual yoga with FM. Lovely!

OH admitted that he would jump at the chance if I expressed the tiniest inkling of desire for another kid. Fortunately, I have not expressed the tiniest inkling of desire in 12 years. Seriously traumatised after a year of PND (not entirely joking about that either).

I got my run in during a storm that has now passed leaving glorious weather. But I'm still happy to have gotten it over and done with as it was a bit of a chore. I managed some half-arsed "strength" exercises from bootcamp but it's not the same without Mean Karen.

Welcome to the 700 miles in 2020 thread, everybody welcome. The thread motto is:
'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

At normal times: All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles. Extra points for bins :-) And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.
