12 mile run at Rutland Water, including the peninsula. I was initially planning on doing a few more miles but forgot my headtorch and didn’t fancy running in the pitch black, especially with the threat of falling in the reservoir very real.
Just for general wonderings…

Birthday present.

The dreaded ‘Red Nose Day’ at school today. Cue hundreds of crazy kids in non-school uniform running around like it’s Christmas.
It’s days like today when I am thankful that I like to run. I managed a trip to the gym at the end of the day for an hour or so on the treadmill – warm up and cool down with 5 miles in the middle – it was good to clear the head.
It was also my last run as a 48 year old – tomorrow’s my birthday! Woop woop!

Lunch. Cushty.
Not quite sure how we’ve got to the 71st day of the year, but here’s today’s picture:

The gym I go to has finally starting to update the machines. It’s a bit of an old school gym, lots of weights, lots of mirrors, and lots of machines that are slowly beginning to fall apart.
So it was quite a surprise when I discovered two new cross-trainers: touchscreens, internet connected and very swanky. I’m looking forward to some new treadmills, which are apparently, on the way.
