Rainmen

This morning at 6.am John, Ray and I [and Johns dog, Mutley] ran for 55 min most of which was in a light drizzle but then towards the end the rain came down in BUCKETS. We had warmed up by then so it was FANTASTIC............it felt so good to be alive and running !

We are starting to get together a Tues morning run at 6am from the leisure centre followed by shower and coffee/bites before going off to work straight from there. This is something a good friend does in Cape Town introduced me to every Fri morning, running through the harbour and onto the breakwater below Table Mountain and then shower with Muesli/fruit salad/yoghurt/toast and coffee/tea................somewhat more scenic than Guildford but I have always LOVED the idea and join them whenever in Cape Town so happy that it's getting off the ground here at last !!

My challenge for the next week [weighing in now at 83.5kg] is to be able to report after 7 days, at least ONE day without an alcoholic beverage !!

Keep running

Good for you Tim - Maybe Liz and I can alternate joining the crew on occasions as well. I like the sound of the breakfast afterwards but rolling into work following exercise and a full english fry-up sounds even better :-)
