Day 19 #juneathon

Yes you've guessed it…..another few miles at the woods tonight. Very predictable! I will make every effort at the weekend to try and run somewhere different. I will also make every effort at the weekend to try and write more interesting posts!!!

Today's mileage = 4.23

Total Juneathon mileage = 92.66

Mojo level = high (only because I am approaching 100 miles!)

 

Day 16 #juneathon

Sunday 16th June…..Father's Day….or to put it in a simpler form….Ridiculous Mass Consumerism Day. But that didn't stop me beginning the day by taking full advantage of it (reconstruction)….

This rather slow and lazy start to the day continued until about lunchtime when a spot of shopping in Peterborough was needed: summer shoes/sandals were top of the list. There are a plethora of summer footwear around at the moment: Birkenstock, Toms, Reef, to name just a few. I nearly went for this rather groovy pair from Cushe, although at £50 I decided against it for now…..

However a beautiful pair of Toms are the way to go!

After shopping I did a bit of work: edited a video for school, marked a couple of bits and planned lessons for tomorrow. Although now the Y11s have left it does make for a slightly lighter day tomorrow; I am particularly looking forward to period 4.

And so to Juneathon….

After a couple of short runs the past couple of days I was determined to get a few miles under my belt tonight. A date at the woods was arranged. Completed over 8 miles with the help of the iPod on shuffle which made for an interesting mix tonight….here is just a flavour…

Frank Hamilton – a few tracks from Frank tonight came on, but this one particularly stuck in my head…

U2 – now I can't stand them and not entirely sure how they got on the iPod, so how about a particular attractive picture of the old rocker himself (what a mess)…

And for the sophisticated, beautiful and classy people out there, a bit of opera, Vide Cor Meum, as featured in 'Hannibal'….

A great run tonight, bringing the total Juneathon mileage to over 75 miles, so heading west from Bourne that would take me to Uttoxeter, although a break half-way at Melton Mowbray for a coffee may be required!

Today's mileage = 8.68

Total Juneathon mileage = 79.08

Mojo level = very high

Over and out…or should I say…NEVER over and NEVER out

 

Day 15 #juneathon

Only 10hrs since yesterday's run I was off again….it must be Juneathon! I think the shortest run of the month, but needs must.

Today is going to be a very busy day. As I sit here typing this blog post I am falling dangerously behind schedule! Still got shower, breakfast, bit of shopping and a two and a half hour drive to do….all before 1pm.

Today's mileage = 2.26

Total Juneathon mileage = 70.40

Mojo level = rapidly falling

Two weeks down…day 14 #juneathon

Today's run, because of one reason or another, had to wait until after 10pm. So when I ran out of the house I was greeted with the first run in the dark of Juneathon. As well as that it started raining after 100 yards….

Therefore, a quick short run was the order of the day. After all the running around the woods during the day I've been doing, it felt a bit strange pounding the streets of Bourne in the dark. Although I did run past the bus garage….

…..it always make me smile….reminds me of classic 'Only Fools and Horses'…

“I look like a traffic warden that ain't been well!”

Today's mileage = 2.70

Total Juneathon mileage = 68.14

Mojo level = high (despite almost forgetting to run)
