The Joy of……

Running. Don’t you just love it?

I woke this morning with one of those huge grins that point blank refuses to go away and look just a tiny bit less smug with itself. Wandering down to the station I had to work hard to keep my feet in some kind of order as they were threatening to leap into the air for a spate of heel clicking frivolities.

When Amy MacDonald came on the iPod I couldn’t resist any more and had to run - I didn’t get too far, the platform was crowded and my rucksac was loaded with heavy study texts. The moment I got home though, I dropped the extraneous trammel and headed down to the river to release my joy with a sprint through the drizzle.

Wet Autumn Morning

Sprint being the operative word.
Either it’s good for me to run on smiles or else someone has been slipping me performance enhancers. I broke my 3 year record for the two bridge river route and it’s my second zippy run of the week. I may have to attempt a time trial again if this keeps up.

Excellent work - see you Saturday then?!
Bring the non runner to cheer and see what a lot of converts there are to the craze!

Tried to comment on this one before, which was ages ago, which means that you need to put up a new post.

Frankly, I’m a little worried about your mental health. Loving running? Irresistible urges to go run at inappropriate times? In any case, congratulations on breaking records and enjoying the running. Maybe someday, with a little bit of luck, I’ll feel the same way you do about it…

Hey there,

I don’t quite see how you can be so excited about running and why haven’t written since that day?

You must have done something else the night before (grin grin) and you’re trying to let the world know about it ;-)

Good luck to you, but don’t let running take all the credit, lol

Cheers,
C
