Today I bought the dog a treat: a flashing LED light dog tag collar pendant. For the princely sum of £1.99.
So tonight we headed to the woods to give it a go. It is very funny, it flashes red and blue constantly. I think it may have freaked the dog out a bit, but he was soon taking no notice of it. Not that he had a choice. It's for dogs that tend to run off. My dog doesn't run off, just wanted to make him look stupid. I did attempt to take a photo, but it's not the best…..
So it was another two and half miles round the woods. I think it's about time I did a bit of a longer run. Tomorrow may be that day.
Total Janathon mileage = 54.97
#janathon Day 5
Sunday morning, traditionally the home of the long run. Although this early in Janathon to attempt a very long run would be madness. Madness. Madness I say!
10am. Billy boy was quite keen to get out there…
Today the plan was to hit the woods for a muddy run. I like running around the woods and I love running on the trails, even after all the rain when it is near impossible to actually run on them. The last three runs have all been round the woods with Billy boy, which he loves, but he does get absolutely covered in mud. Then of course during the course of the day it dries and he then leaves little piles of dust wherever he lays. So I had a word with him and he agreed to try to avoid getting too muddy.
He lied.
We both got absolutely covered. So when I got in I had something to eat, had a shower, put some washing on, did a bit of ironing, mopped the floor, loaded the dishwasher and wrote this blog. Billy? He had a relax…
As for the run…here it is….in what has quickly become the norm….in graphic form…
Total Janathon mileage = 20.5
I’m a big kid….
What can I say? It was early evening, just about dusk, when I headed to the woods with the dog, put the earphones in, pressed go on the 'Zombies, Run!' app and went for it! With the woods deserted, light fading and zombies moaning in the ears it ending up being REALLY creepy. I had great fun!
At one point I actually spotted a fella that reminded me of the bloke from 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' – I did attempt to take a picture of him, but by the time I got my phone out and prepared, I was right next to him and I didn't think he'd really appreciate me taking a snap of him and running off – so for dramatic effect this is exactly what it looked like….
AND…..I got really muddy….
Well I am just a big kid after all!
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 9 #juneathon
The day after a late night at Long Division Festival. Saw some great bands: a first sight of Allo Darlin'; a fantastic The Wave Pictures, a slightly strange Dead Flowers; and a very funny Mark Wynn. As well a few rather dubious ones. I think a post solely related to the festival may soon appear later in the week.
Today's run was a steady short run under a rather cloudy sky. Without the dog, who is in the proverbial dog house after yesterday's shenanigans. After the unplanned long run yesterday, today was always going to be a short one. Felt good once I began but still decided to take it easy.
Today's mileage = 3.56 (at a steady 8 min/mile pace)
Total Juneathon mileage = 45.75
Mojo level = high
