Day 28 Veganuary

I was in charge of dinner tonight: vegan sausage rolls, chips and beans. These Linda McCartney sausage rolls are lovely.

Just what was needed after yet another ridiculous day at school, followed by an hour on the treadmill at the gym.

I also watched The Ultimate Triathlon on Amazon Prime – well worth a watch – follows the story of a fella who swam, cycled and ran 2000km in 12 days from Morocco to Monaco. Amazing.

Tonight’s picture was taken whilst on a run after work at Rutland Water. I remembered my headtorch tonight so was able to stay a bit later and do a few more miles.

A thoroughly enjoyable run, which was exactly what was needed after yet another ridiculous day at work.

Parents’ evening.

This does cause some issues if you are trying to be more active every day. What is the likely hood of staying at school until 8pm and then going out for a run once home? Zero.

That is why, incredibly, I was up and out the door at 6am this morning! Early morning runs are not really my cup of tea, but needs must and all that…

Smashed it.

Day 7 RED January

After not running at all in December (and barely in November) because of the niggle in the calf, this RED January is a godsend. It means I can very slowly increase distance and speed.

So today I was at the gym – 4 miles on the treadmill – slowly increasing the speed of each mile.

I’m hoping that by the end of January I might be somewhere need where I was about 3 months ago so that I can start building up the mileage and getting back to some faster parkruns.

RED January stats:

  • 1 parkrun
  • 1 gym session
  • 2 bike rides
  • 2 runs
  • 1 walk
