Day 1523 amazing 6.07km run before work!

I was not feeling it last night OR this morning…. I couldn’t get the idea of a run out of my head, I should cancel, I’m tired, I ate too late last night, didn’t drink enough water, shouldn’t run…. I’ll hold everyone back…

And yet I set the alarm for 5.30am… Khaleesi woke me at 5.24am and I got out of bed and ready to meet the girls at 5.45am.

I settled into it and honestly can say I barely noticed my breathing at all.

I was out of breath but I was also just out for a chat with the girls, moving faster than we would if we were walking.

It was such a great feeling.

Here we all are after 48 minutes of non stop running.

I loved it this morning. There were no bad moments for me at all. It’s funny that I can feel so negative about it yet be so positive during it.

I’ll take that every time!!!

Work flew in today and it was nice enough for Ellison and I to sit outside at lunchtime.

I’m sitting outside writing this now but I’m cold… I’m trying to stay here in the sunshine but I may have to give in. It’s just the coldest wind.

I literally stood up and walked straight indoors 😂.

Craig made a lovely veggie dinner.

So yeah, not much else to report, mid week and all that.

Busy weekend coming though!

Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️

Day 1470 what a beautiful morning to be alive! ☀️🏃🏻‍♀️☀️🐕‍🦺☀️

We’re still being blasted by the arctic air so it was frosty overnight again but it’s a beautiful morning. ☀️☀️☀️

I’m sitting outside on a bench in the garden, pretending it’s warmer than it actually is… it’s 11.08am and I’ve already run 3 miles with Run Club, walked Bhru and Freya and then had a big field walk with Calaidh.

I’m contemplating how to top that 😂😂 actually I’m so tired after all that I may just sit here all day with my suntan lotion on!

It’s been pure blue skies with white fluffy clouds and I am determined to live my best life for June who sadly passed away yesterday. I want to make every moment count, even if it is just sitting around relaxing. As long as I’m present in the moment then that’s all that matters.

It’s 7am.

I cannot get over the colour of the sky… 💙

I must take more photos of the trees now than I do of the dogs 😂

Love the early morning sun creating these long shadows… 4 members of run club in action!

Spiers school grounds looking lovely in the early morning sun!

Old Geilsland House.

This morning’s run club, Lynsey, Elly, Rachel two doors down and my bright red face!!

More trees.

All done! I’m definitely the reddest!!!

I love how much we are all smiling.

Back home and straight back out with Bhruic and Freya. Never met a soul…. Just how I like it!

More shadows!

Then back for a half hour with Craig before Calaidh and I headed out with Rachel and Nacho, Jim and Muck!

We walked right up to the top of the old golf course. Views right over to Lochwinnoch and Castle Simple Loch.

The gorse is as yellow as the sky is blue.

Looking over to Beith Parish Church.

The final shadow pic of the day… it’s not even 10am. There could be more….. Jim couldn’t resist! Rachel looks scarily tall!

And yes I actually did put this stick above my head to make it look like antlers… 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

All the dogs had a blast.

I have to admit after all of that I have had the laziest of days.

I’ve done housework, pottered, hung washing out to dry but I’ve been shattered. I spent a large part of the afternoon on the couch under Craig’s crochet blanket dozing on and off. I’m so tired.

To be fair I have done 22k steps today and most of them all before 10am!!

I am very calm and it feels really good.

On our After Dry January FB group we’ve done tributes for June today. A lovely lady Sally posted this and this says it all.

Happy Saturday night.

Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
