Saturday

Hi....

I got up early after a bad nights sleep to go and do the Park Run.  I was really nervous! I think it is because the only running i've done lately has been stop and start - with circuits and I haven't ran more than 1-3km in one go.  I was also worried that my hip might start hurting lots again.  I wanted to see how I went on because I have a 10km run next weekend!

Helen was messaging me, as she was going to do the Torbay park run - she hadn't done it before, but wanted to do it, because next weekend the NHS are taking over the parkruns, and she works for the NHS and wants to get involved.

So....off I went on the park run - determined to take it easy - not trying to beat any times...and at the time I don't think I enjoyed it at all - I just wanted it to be over lol.  I managed it without any major pain in 33.30.  Quite a bit slower than the last couple of times, but still not bad considering I wasn't trying to push myself really hard.

Photo's are usually put up on FB later in the day - and there was one of me that was truly awful! I looked about 65...it must have been taken as my foot hit the ground and my face dropped downwards! lol.  Soooooo bad.....so bad in fact that I am not reproducing here!

When I got home Andy wasn't up yet so I tidied up and got he dishwasher on and stuff...then he surfaced and we had poached egg on toast - and then he went in to the studio - and I had a nice bath - then played...and basically we were lazy for the rest of the day - which seems to becoming a thing!
