1k and a good deed a day

Day 5 Summer has made an appreance again which means running during the day is near impossible, unless you like collapsing in a heap on the floor with heat stroke.   I did a 5k when it had cooled down, then to play a trick on myself, I had a takeaway curry for dinner.  Regretted that a tad.  Good deed: Volunteered in a charity shop and also spent £18 on clothes from there. Oops. But it is for charity so it's fine :)  Day 6 The evenings seem to be slowly drawing in  which is #sadtimes but, it makes for some stunning pictures.  Well, if I was any good at photography.... Clearly I am not any good at it.  But I think you might be able to appreciate what I was trying to capture.  Tomorrow is looking to be a scorcher so I might have to drag myself up early, hmm yeah, maybe. Good deed: smiled at another runner and did a thumbs up to encourage them....and got ignored. 👍

Day 1   It’s not often that I get up and out of the house at 7am, I’m not much of an early bird, but I wanted to start this challenge as I mean to go on, so I crawled out of bed and tried not to think it would be a better idea to do it later.  Turns out there was not one bit of regret in my body when I got to the beach, it felt amazing to be out running with hardly anyone else around. It was also a bonus not many people were about because I had on my shorts. They really live up to their name. I apologise if you did witness them.  By just after half 7 I was done and felt smug all day.  Day 2 The smile was wiped off my face this morning thanks to a couple of gins last night (ok, and a couple of wines), I eventually got out after 5pm after wallowing all day, but surprisingly I felt like I was flying for most of my run. I wasn’t particularly fast, but it is amazing what a bit of air in your lungs can do to make you feel a million times better.  Plus, the thought of a takeaway C

Batman plasters saved me on my run today.  It was pointed out to me, that I was pointing out 👀 in my new running top with built in bra.  So glad it has taken me 3 days to be told. And before you think I'm gross and don't wash my clothes, I have 2 of these top/bra combos.  Just felt I needed to 'point' that out.  I went on a community mission with Good Gym today where we did some gardening at St Boltophs Church. It was lovely meeting new people who also enjoy doing good deeds. 6k done today. Starting to ache on day 3 of 31.  Uh-oh.  Are we allowed to get massages yet? I need one asap! 

Till you have to run a 5k the next day. I thought I was winning at life yesterday when I tasted coconut and lime gin for the first time, but not so much today.  I had to kick myself up the butt a few times but I got out and ran in the end.   Did a #2minutebeachclean in the middle of my run and picked up a wipe of some sort...I  know...Corona!                 (The offending wipe) Luckily there was a bin nearby but my hand felt unclean and yucky so I grabbed some stones and chalk and rubbed my hand with them. I don't know why but I thought it would help. It didn't. For the rest of my run I held my hand at a jaunty angle as far away from my body as I could get it.  Since I've been home I've washed my hand 100 times. Actually, I'm just going to make that 101.
