To the Oscars or Ukraine?

Don’t forget to thank your agent in your speech.

I’m cheap. I’ll get out of bed for 10% and a strong cuppa.

Not a bad haul, from my neighbour’s “Free DVD” box left out. Saved them from impending rain…!!

I’m saving this for something at some point…

So now I’m kind of used to the boot, this is how this saga ended…

Stop please wait here.
Reception will call staff you forward soon.

(I’m bored in A&E.)

Bed photo please!!

Day 20 (yesterday). 6.30pm.
Really quite painful. Kept pace but I think it’s a tendon thing. Probably stopping. Bit disappointed.
Still, not a bad mile count or run of days. Le sigh.

5K every day.
Day 20. Rest day. Ankle too bad but it will be better tomorrow. Disappointed but I’d rather finish it. Also, rain.
Treated myself to a compression sock.

5K every day.
Day 19. 7am.
Tasty mist. Not at all cold. Really tho.
Ankle quite hideously painful when walking, but ran on it fine. Not sure what that means.

5K every day.
Day 18. 8.30am.
Chipping away at the time, third fastest 5K ever!
Had a *moment* with “Hounds of Love” (Bush not ‘Heads) and this tree.
Today’s big news is that I’m washing my running socks… local population, you’re welcome.

This is oft repeated in our house.

My kids totes think I’m funny. Just.

5K every day.
Day 17. 12 noon.
Sun too hot, high noon cowboy sunblind. More dogs would’ve been nice. Non-specific ankle adjacent twinge, but kept pace even if it felt slow.

5K every day.
Day 16. 8.30am.
Started with this banger in my ears, the sunrise over the common felt apropos. Pushed harder towards intervals, sliding my way to 25 minutes. More light, less rush-hour cars. Win/win.

5K every day.
Day 15. 7am.
New flatter route, higher pace. Really want to get it to 25 mins. Bored of early starts. Might run in the light tomorrow.

5K every day.
Day 14. 6.45am.
Another emo sky picture. There was a perfect “Dreamworks” moon. Slippy ground but not that cold.
Seen the same morning walker 3 days in a row. We waved.
(I did run yesterday but didn’t diarise.)

5K every day.
Day 12. 6.30am. Road to myself. Lovely and mild; tried to keep pace up, but had a fitful night’s sleep.

5K every day
Day “Legs” 11, actually. 9am.
Back to pace. Quiet & damp. Pacesetter Rock pushed me on. Shoved some flytipped furniture to the pavement-side.

5K every day.
Day 10. 10am. “Ran” it with my 12 year old, slower but we did the distance. Frosty & slippy. Sunny skies, cold fingers.

5K every day.
Day 9. 8.15am. Legs felt better, 24 respite helps. Fridays still quieter for traffic. Sophie’s Kitchen Disco helped. Housewarming party tonight so tomorrow might be tough.

5K every day.
Day 8. 7.30am. Legs a bit more treacly today. Harder work. Getting hungrier early each day. Made it out before the weather bomb, er, bombed.

5K every day.
Day 7. Long shadows. Quiet streets. Warm enough to take my gloves off. Less motivated to get up & out but felt great after. Itchy legs.

I just did a zoom call with a woolly hat on. I’m not entirely immune!

That’s still amazing!! It’s been cold AF.

5K every day.
Day 6. Still a pre-dawn start. Hardest one to get going on yet. No photo. No foxes.

Don’t worry, they’ll be getting their asses kicked by squirrels in a turf war soon.

5K every day.
Day 5. Creeping dawn. 2 foxes. Maybe the same one twice. Lots of cars, all different. Bin day trip hazards. Frost.

5K every day.
Day 4. Moon one side, banging dawn on the other. No foxes. Mucho taxis. Ankle better but cold AF.
