That sounded lovely LD.

Well yet again I’ve had a poor month for running and even forgot it was the last day of the month so haven’t rounded up my numbers.

Next month and the rest of the year I am concentrating on running and exercising.

Well done AR. Nice LD :-)

Rest day for me, just a wander to the pub and back with Sal and our friend. She told me my hair is suddenly white and asked if I had been in shock since we last met. Lolz. It's great being older!

Excited about running tomorrow. Then a workshop in York which is my least favourite place to visit, got 3 Tuesdays on a row. 90 minute drive, expensive parking. And starts at 12.30 so I really need to leave around 10.15 to allow for traffic issues etc.

Must get up and run before 9 I reckon.....

York parking has suddenly (or suddenly to me) got more expensive. Where are you doing the workshop (although I’m generally not good at knowing cheap places to park I might have an idea).

It's at the Probation Hub, which is at the back of Monk Bar car park. The car park is ideal as it's so near and I have lots of equipment but it's £7.50 for 3 hours. :-o

Morning everyone.

Going to try a longish run today and hoping I don’t have any tummy/colon issues.

Enjoy your workshop Som.

Ditto, Linds. It was my lowest mileage July since I joined Fetch in 2010 :-0

I can tell how bad it's been because after last night's four miles I slept very badly, with aching legs and feet :-(

Oh well. New month, new me :-)
