I love those photos Som :)

I took the dog out before work. Remained upright despite the combination of dog + mud + road shoes, but then the universe decided to drop a squirrel in the mix.
Suddenly, I was horizontal.

I've been pulled over by a dog chasing a cat and it's no joke - I hope you're ok Carp!

I ran in the drizzle, heard about the Tokyo marathon (it went really well :-) ) and have driven down to the seaside. The car dashboard temperature was 4* when we set off from Gloucestershire, with snow in the fields; by the time we arrived the temperature was 13* and heavy drizzle and low cloud over the cliffs.

So to cheer myself up I've booked OH and me into a hotel in Palma in October so I can do the Half there (or more likely, the 9k - I really think 13.1 miles are beyond me and my knee these days ;-) )

Evening. Went for a run this afternoon. It was fine but a headwind that chilled right through you so a 5k was enough.

Just messaged G to arrange a run for tomorrow after her work as we never got out on Monday as I had to work all day.

Carp, hope you’re okay this evening x

LD, a Palma trip sounds nice - even if you have to run a bit ;-)
