(Posted a day late – no excuse – just forgot)

Today’s run was the slowest most uncomfortable run of the month. After Saturday’s exersions at Runstock today was all about checking that the legs still work. 

They do, but only just. 

2.8 miles at the woods with the dog: walking up hills and relaxing on benches. 

Total Juneathon mileage = 58.4

If the soul is in a state of mortal sin it is incapable of repenting unless God gives to the soul an actual grace to do so, and even then the soul must cooperate with the grace God has freely given to it out of His Divine Mercy.

I think you know what’s coming, I have a confession to make: 

Forgive me for a have sinned: I did not run today. I have no excuse except for the fact that I ran a bloody long way yesterday. 

Total Juneathon mileage = 55.6

Today we attended another fantastic Rat Race event: Runstock.

8 hours to do as many 5km laps as you can. Laps included various obstacles: slippery zone, water zone, assault zone, stunt zone and fairground zone. 

It was hot. It was hilly. It was grassy.

The heat sapped your energy. The hills sapped your energy. The grass underfoot sapped your energy. Although, we did good. Great event. 

Helen: 5 laps, 25km.

Me: 8 laps, 40km.

Total Juneathon mileage: 55.6

Had my last ever English lesson with this lot today. 

I wish them well for the future. 

Today’s run: 3.1 miles. It was, yet again, a steady jog at the woods with the dog. Today was just about getting out for the run to tick off day 9 of Juneathon. 

Runstock tomorrow. I’m still deciding whether or not to take on the ‘go ultra’ challenge and run 50km, or take it easy and have a bit more fun in the process. So plenty of food and an early night needed. 

Total Juneathon mileage = 30.8

Today’s run started by popping in to cast my vote.

Followed by a couple of laps of the woods. Totalling 3.4 miles.

Total Juneathon mileage = 27.7

One week down. 7 runs completed. Nice.

To celebrate….a photo blog.

A gentle plod round the woods avoiding various obstacles on the way, including mud, fallen trees and endless paths.

3.1 miles done.

Total Juneathon mileage = 24.3
