Ouch :-o

Hello all. Just read back a few pages. Such a mixed bag. Hugs to those who need them and bunting for those who require such things.

Today is day 3 of our staycation....took GF for a run, then we both took teen thing for a canoe. She seemed to kind of enjoy it. We all got wet butts. Now home chilling for a while. Pottery fun booked in locally for 5pm.

Compeed works wonders for things like that LG.
I'm not sure they come oin colours to match the varnish though. Unlike the burst blister.

That does look sore LG.

I didn't have quite the expedition I'd planned but I still had an interesting run. Barely above walking pace though but who cares.

Heading home - busy day interviewing for a junior role. Hopefully appointing. Nice to see colleagues in the flesh once again!

A compeed is amazing. Just a pity it does nothing for a crap run.

Second week in a row I have tried to go out at 6.30pm for a run to try and get me into the habit again as I won’t like early morning runs in the winter but I can barely get a mile done. I don’t know what to do about it. I have a race on Friday night and already dreading it :-(

Sounds like me, LG. I’d intended running this evening too but by the time I finished work at 6:30pm (an hour late) it was all I could do to crawl downstairs to the sofa.
