Running Miles, Ricky Races, Marathon, 25.01.2024
A run around the Rickmansworth Aquadrome, which is a very lovely place to run, all around lakes and pretty woods on good paths. 8 laps made a marathon.
Ran a lap and a half with Tony, chatting away and learning about horror films. Then had half a lap on my own, reflecting on my new horror film knowledge (including how to take revenge on satanic worshipers by baking cakes with the blood of a rabid dog, but being mindful of how that can quickly get out of hand). Then 5 laps with Alice, chatting about many things, covering topics such as biscuits, desserts, holidays, books, and other random things. It was a lovely morning of running, and feeling better for it. Thanks Tony, Alice, and Running Miles!
Phoenix Running, Mermaid Run, Marathon, 27.01.2024
A day of mermaid mischief on the Thames! A chilly day running the Walton Bridge route. The medal was a mermaid, so we dressed accordingly.
Disaster struck just before half way, when I made a close acquaintance with the floor. Thank you everyone who checked I was OK, and thank you Rik for sticking my knee back together at the aid station! No harm done, just missing a chunk of knee, and got a bonus bashed elbow thrown in for free. Woo hoo!
Lots of bird life out, including Dimitri on his morning walk, and the lovely black swan was around today, looking pretty.
Phoenix Running, Unicorn Run, Marathon, 28.01.2024
Today was the turn of the unicorn. Some fabulous unicorn outfits! Any excuse to dress as a unicorn is good enough for me.
We ran in the Sunbury Lock direction today, which is always nice, and especially so on a sunny day.
An altogether fabulous weekend of running. Thank you Team Phoenix! And to Sarah for putting up with me and my clumsiness for another two marathons! 🧜♀️🦄💕
