Hugs for the afflicted bighug , gold stars for the heroic star

Awful night shift on a random ward. Hip hurting,big toe throbbing, and I've done something to my shoulder which makes lying down almost impossible.

Morning :-)

4 wild and windy miles in the bag, feeling pretty smug that I missed the horrific rain that's forecast, some days the run gods are kind.

GWS to all the afflicted.

3.1 miles done today to bring up 60 for the month and secure my black heart. On 517 for 2021 overall - It’s going to be an exciting end to the year.

Morning!

Neg LFT for me this morning but still waiting for OH's PCR before I meet anyone. I've got the whole day to prepare a presentation. But I am still in bed. (It is not quite 8am here so not as bad as that sounds.)

Hibeedeb
Get well soon wishes to the poorly folk. Glad your lft was negative ITG - hope your OHs PCR is also negative

Carp - I feel your pain, I haven’t had to do a night shift for a few years thankfully

It’s forecast to be a beautiful sunny day here but it
L still be dark when I run - it’s only 6.30 here

River Gate update, I had promised the lad last night that if he went in the ambulance I would recover his bike from the river and drop it off to his house, as he was refusing treatment.
Went down the river this morning and dragged his bike out, was walking back with it when he came walking down the path, told me it was his bike, said I knew and it was me that had pulled him out. Was met with my dad is coming please don't tell him, He thinks I was mugged.

Transpired he spent the night in hospital, and was released this morning, obviously the hospital won't disclose why he was there, and he has told his parents he was mugged, I walked back with his dad who told me about him being mugged, bit of a moral dilemma. He won't/can't get help unless he asks for it, but obviously won't/can't tell his parents, if he had ended up in the river and no one had been there he would not be here now.

Oh dear, had he ridden into the river on purpose then? Hopefully he can pull himself back up from his dark place. I think social media has a lot to do with it these days. :(

Good for you Dio, I'm just behind you. I've had my blackheart since April but this pesky cold last week has done for it this month. I won't be able to get to 700 this year, and I won't break myself trying either. :)

(Neither necessary nor sufficient :) )
