bunting LD 700 bunting (The pic didn't come up in your post)



Welcome back Comunba.

I think I was still recovering from Tuesday so binned any idea of getting up early for parkrun so I'll get out on my bike later and maybe a little trot this afternoon.

Overshot my DrK prediction. It was a slow, congested start, but didn't want to push too hard to catch up in case I then went too fast. Never mind, 30s out is not too bad.

AR - that's strange, LD's photo was visible in her post yesterday.

Morning gonks.

Welcome back, Columba.

Girlfriend was doing Monsal Trail parkrun so I said I would come along for some fresh air. Planned to walk it but ended up running with Sal, 31.29 for me. Happy with that, defo on the mend. Feeling tonnes better but took it easy. Still felt hard but hopefully will be ok to jog round the great south next weekend.

IT GRANNY 🇮🇸
Feeling well chuffed with that. Two of the refugee kids had broken bikes. The first one was working but going really slow. Diagnosis: in 1st gear. Cure: showing her how to change gears. She is 14 but would never have been allowed on a bike in Afghanistan.
The second was more complicated with neither brakes working. One just needed cable tightened and once it was working, I could see what I needed to do to reattach cable at the front. Girls are free again. Hurrah!

Well repaired, ITG.

Predictably, after a bit of travel away from home, I have gone down with a cold. Or something. A sore throat and fatigue, anyway. No running for the time being.

Turns out my sore throat etc is Covid. Found a LFT that hadn’t expired and thought I’d give it a go just to see. Instant red line. Oh well, a sense of inevitability I guess.
