Oooooooooooooooh

Ooh, wow, yay for me and suchlike, I ran 2.5 miles tonight without stopping! Sort of without stopping anyway, just a few seconds for a couple of cars and a particularly crowded bit of pavement. Let's hope I can walk tomorrow.

Must have been the fresh spring air as a man on a bicycle said good evening to me, aah, how polite, I even managed to say hi back (just about) and I got hooted at a couple of times too. Not sure if it was a good hoot or not though.

Almost got run over by a lorry as I was crossing the big road in front of B&Q but a bus got in its way instead or I might have been squished. I must learn how to cross the road although I am getting better at it, Kate was mightily impressed at me crossing the road without standing there looking confused for five minutes first the other week in Islington. I told her running makes you feel invincible, probably best not to get complacent though.

Am feeling v. proud of myself tonight and more confident that I'm going to get better at this. I'm not going to run tomorrow morning now as I'm going to rest instead. Well, if going out on the p**s with Mark in Cambridge is resting. I've been wanting a cigarette all week, going to be tough tomorrow!

Ah well, it's Friday and it's beer o'clock, hurrah!

  • WELL DONE 🙂

    I’ve just checked my watch and I think yours is running a little late – It’s vodka o’clock up north 😀

    Have a good weekend!

  • Thanks JoggerBlogger, I think it’s well done to me too, heh heh. I’m going to attempt a whole 30 minutes next time. I could have carried on tonight but had already gone longer than I had planned to, went past my road 4 times and I could feel my knees complaining so thought I should probably go back in. I was so lightheaded when I got indoors!

    Enjoy your vodka 🙂
