That’s every day of January I have run so far, it starts to get a bit tedious from this point. It’s not just the running, it’s the double daily showers, it’s the trying to fit it in around ‘life’, not to mention the dark, cold days.

Today it was ANOTHER treadmill run: 5km.

Today’s soundtrack was Frightened Rabbit. Incredibly this album was released ten years ago this week.

It’s been a busy cold week so far – two treadmill runs – but I was determined to get outside for a run today.

Got out of work as soon as I could and managed to at least start the run in the light – head-torch was required towards the end.

4.2 miles around the village. Very cold and breezy. Day 18. Done.

Squeezed a little run in…

Full day of teaching followed by a 3 hour parents’ evening. Followed by waiting in the car for this to clear…

All meant it was a 2 mile run on the treadmill. Done.

Day 16…over halfway.

Busy evening tonight. It was straight in from work, jump on the treadmill, dinner and out for a Samaritans duty.

Treadmill: 3.4 miles at a nice gentle pace.

Today was rebranded by the Samaritans as ‘Brew Monday’ – encouraging people to check in with someone and have a chat.

After running for the last five days on the treadmill, it felt good to actually get outside for the run.

It was very cold and windy which made the lunchtime run around the village all the more satisfying.

It was another cheeky 2+ miles on the treadmill.

Mainly because it’s been a very busy day: out all day and out again tonight.
