Just for general wonderings…
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.
‘The Alchemist’ by Paulo Coelho
My reading is slightly different this year, normally I’d just read a book a wanted to read. But this year I’ll be interspersing books I want to read with recommendations.
This was one of those recommendations.
I wouldn’t normally pick up a book like this. It’s described as a modern classic and is always in those lists of book you must read.
Apparently the story of Santiago, the shepherd boy, has inspired people all over the world to live their dreams.
Quick blog today I’ve got lots to do:
Looks like it might be a busy day!
To summarise: wasn’t that impressed with it.
