Due to Christmas frivolity, too much chocolate and cheese and a toddler who has given up on sleep, it has taken me a couple of weeks to get this written. I really wanted to try and do it justice though, as this race has been the final goal for 2016. At times this year I … [Read more…]
Just a quick one to let you know that despite the festive season and Little Miss almost completely giving up on sleep, the #rwwinterrunstreak continues. Despite storm Barbara, Santa and overwhelming exhaustion, I have put in my mile a day. I just haven’t had time to write anything or think either. In fact I’m writing … [Read more…]
Today I was on my own again. I had a lot of Christmas jobs to get done which can be a bit of a struggle because I am always tempted to do more than I have time for. So this morning’s #mile for #rwwinterrunstreak was a good head clearer. I am loving that I can … [Read more…]
Having finished work last week for Christmas, I am enjoying the opportunity to pace my life a little slower. Top and Middle Monkey are still at school until Thursday and Little Miss is still in nursery for her usual sessions. I am therefore making the most of my time. Finally able to get a grip … [Read more…]
After an amazing full on weekend of weddings, races, early Christmas dinners and secret Santa, I took a leisurely mile this morning. All for my #rwwinterrunstreak.

Day 24 of my #rwwinterrunstreak. I’m going to be quick because I am at a wedding. Child free and a little bit squiffy. It was a cold mile this morning. But I did a lap of the park. I marvelled at the fact that tomorrow I will run the same lap three times and finish … [Read more…]

Please read There’s Half a Plastic Chicken in my Designer Handbag for a greater analysis of the blurred lines between working and … [Read more…]
Day 22 of my #rwwinterrunstreak. I squeezed my mile in just after the school run again. A quick lap of the park and thankfully Little Miss had a little nap. If she’s awake these days we struggle to get past the swings without her trying to escape from the pushchair. Race numbers are here Just … [Read more…]
It’s Day 21 of my #rwwinterrunstreak. I’m still going but I am currently racking up a number of sleepless nights that are making this so much more difficult. It may only be a mile but a mile on lead legs with a heavy head, my goodness. Help me. Therefore, I returned to a post I … [Read more…]
Day 20 of my #rwwinterrunstreak and I am tired. (Again). It’s been a time juggling day today. Having planned my run for 6am it didn’t happen. I lingered a moment too long in bed and Mr LMR pinched my running slot. Humph! It wasn’t entirely his fault as I had been up until 1am with … [Read more…]
