Got out of work nice and early today. Once home it was get changed and get out. 4ish miles around the lovely Lincolnshire countryside.
No poem tonight – the pub is calling!
Day 6 mileage = 4.10
Total Juneathon mileage = 28.06
Just for general wonderings…
How about a ridiculously beautiful piece of nonsense verse?
The foot went flying through the air,
With the shin attached and looking bare.
The kooky in the tree gave a cry of shoop shoop shoop,
As the donkey drank the massive bowl of hula hoop soup.
Juneathon was here and she wasn't very happy,
So we cut her up and fed her to the billy bong snappy.
Day 5 mileage = 5.16
Total Juneathon mileage = 23.96
Today's run could be summed up in one word: wet. But why use one word when you can add a load of others and create a sonnet.
Juneathon the fourth and it was quite a day,
Teaching and meetings and running club.
Left school pretty early – no overstay,
Straight to the woods, avoided the pub.
Started the run and it was dry and clear,
Five minutes later it was anything but.
I'd wished I'd gone and had that beer,
Cause the rain had started to fall somewhat.
I managed to do a few miles at the wood,
I was totally drenched when back to the car.
As much as I was soaked – it felt quite good,
Which is something I found pretty bizarre.
By five o'clock it was Murray on the box,
And heading for a glass of whiskey on the rocks.
Day 4 mileage = 2.58
Total Juneathon mileage = 18.80
Tonight, on day 3 of Juneathon, we welcome another form of poetry: the triolet.
“Juneathon is in full swing”
And so far everything's alright.
I feel like I want to sing:
“Juneathon is in full swing!”
I want to do the highland fling,
The weather's warm the evenings light.
“Juneathon is in full swing!”
And so far everything's alright.
Day 3 mileage = 5.03
Total Juneathon mileage = 16.22
So, here we go again….a month of running every day.
Day 1 is done: 5.81 miles at the woods. It was a lovely morning.
But more importantly how about a limerick to kick off the month:
There was a young man named Phil,
Who decided to run up a hill.
Juneathon is here,
So he's dropping the beer,
And his mantra is, “Keepin' it real”.
Day 1 mileage = 5.81
Total Juneathon mileage = 5.81
