March Marathoning

Running Miles Ricky Races 2, 21.03.2024

Some runs are just difficult, and that's all there is to be said 🤣 Well, I could say a lot more, of course 🤣 But, you know, it just was. I was in the wrong headspace for it, and it was a fight to hang in there, and keep my inner demons from being too demonic. But, I'm happy that I did that. 

11 laps and a bit around the Rickmansworth Aquadrome, the place with the highest dog/walking pole to people ratio on the planet on this particular day. It was nice and sunny though, and although I was having a bad day, I do like it there, and big thanks Noel for some laps and chats, which took my mind off things for a bit! 

Afterwards, it was back to inner demon combating, to finish my marathon.

Thanks Rik and Runnings Miles, and especially Beryl and Liz for being so kind 💕

Phoenix Running, Ten in Ten Day 1, Fortitude Scroll, 23.03.2024

After Thursday, I was ready to quit marathon running forever (which would be a shame, really). So, apart from looking forward to seeing Sarah for a chat-athon and to seeing her and all the TiTs/TweTs set off on their epic ventures, I wasn't altogether sure about going running today. But, in a fine example of how two days doing essentially the same thing can actually be completely different, it was an excellent day and I loved every minute. Thank you Sarah (princess twin), for always making it fun! Got to pick up our 100 Ultra Marathon batons too! Back to enjoying it again.

Phoenix Running, Ten in Ten Day 7, Intrepid Scroll, 29.03.2024

Back to join in the TiTs and TweTs on day 7 of their journeys. All of them being awesome, and looking strong.

A day of all four seasons....sun, rain, wind, cold, warm, sun, wind....wind, wind.....

...more wind....

....baubles, Dimitri, freshly caught shrimps, laughs, happy dogs, swans, chocolate cake, coffee and post run chats. 

A good day! 

Good luck for the rest of the 10 and 12 days....go be awesome, and catch your dreams!
