lovely long run

well this morning's run was very enjoyable indeed in terms of effort and weather. started out with Lulu, Jen and Owl and came home with Jen. Unfortunately Lulu had a flare up or possible new injury which meant that we had to leave her half way which was a shame. Owl had slightly less time on the program. But I actually did 70 mins! which was fantastic. It was a more relaxed pace than last week which meant covering the same distance but 5 mins slower.

afterwards we headed to a cafe on Clovelly Rd where sparkie and the gorgeous louis joined us for breakfast. very relaxing morning and i'm gradually getting that time right up! there was a time when the idea of running for over an hour was ridiculous! hurray!

now to deal with the fact that my house looks like a bomb site and i have no clean clothes!

god i love sundays.
