I’m back…
It took the sun to break through the clouds and for me to say “enough is enough!”. To be honest I miss the running and cycling and with the poor wet / cloudy cold weather recently I’ve not been motivated to get out much and as a result I’ve been feeling cabin fever and putting on some weight!
So…. no more pies and back dog jogging and cycling after a reasonably restful couple of months recovering from the marathon and the London to Paris 24 hour cycle.
Tonight I decided to jog from the house and at 19 degrees (according to the car) went out in a black vest to try and get some vitamin D! The dogs looked smart with their new leads – turquoise with white stars and lime green with turquoise stars… 
just waiting on their new collars to match. It was the usual 3 mins hanging about in my front garden to get a satellite signal for the Garmin.
Run was pretty challenging today as I’m feeling out of shape! First hill was slow, through the village I thought I had lead legs but the real challenge was the run up through the midgie Glen to the high point.. going up hill was pretty slow and out of breath. The run back down the hill through the village was much better although I got a stitch when I was passing the park!
Least that is out of the way and it can only get better! No challenges in the diary yet… thinking about it…
