Juneathon Day 18

Incredibly it has been 36hrs since I last ran – 6am yesterday – it’s felt like a rest day!

It was an early evening pootle around the village before heading into town to get some chippy chips. Cushty.

So far so good…

Juneathon Day 17

It was a 6am run this morning for a couple of reasons:

  1. It was going to be warm – 30 deg – so didn’t fancy that at the end of the day.
  2. Out tonight for drinks.

The alarm went off at 5.50am and as much as I wasn’t really looking forward to it, once outside it was all good.

A lovely 5m run following the normal route. Increasing the pace as the miles got done.

Scorchio!

By the time 5pm came around it was slightly cooler – perfect for a gentle 4-miler.

Another down to the river and back.

Since living in the village there has been a myth about a ferry that will take you across the river. I have never seen said ferry…until today.

The image in my head was one of Charon crossing the River Styx carrying the souls of the newly deceased who have received their rites of burial.

In reality it looks like this.

Although I couldn’t see Charon, he may have upgraded his boat and was at the bar waiting for the dead.

Back to the run, it was a lovely. I like feeling the sun on your back as you pootle along. And…got me another Strava badge.

Halfway.

Not a lot of time to get the run in today. Full day at school, followed by after-school meeting, followed by dinner, followed by Samaritans branch meeting.

There was a little window between getting in from work and having dinner. So it was the usual getting it done 3+ mile run followed by a very quick shower!

Saw this little fella…

Oh yeah…got another Strava badge…

Juneathon Day 13

As we near halfway through the month this is often the time when doing Juneathon isn’t such a good idea as it seemed back on 1st June. Not this time though. Everything seems to be holding up.

This evening’s run was a lovely 4+ miles. In fact, I felt I could have kept running, I was feeling strong and really enjoying it, but my inner voice said ‘let’s not go mad, you’re not even halfway through’ so decided 4ish miles was far enough.

It was a podcast that accompanied me on the run: Running Commentary.
