A lovely bit of company.............

So after a nice rest day yesterday, this morning I actually managed to haul myself out of bed at 7am and was hanging around in Oak Farm School by 7:45am waiting for some Cove Joggers to arrive and take me running!

Yes, today I went running with a running club - a first for me - and it was very nice.

I ran with Brian, Alan and Jon (left to right in the photo) and we did just over 16 miles (3 more than on the programme) in around 2hrs 20 minutes.

It was a nice route - taking in road and a bit of off road up in Sandhurst woods - so a bit hilly, but good and varied.

I was feeling pretty tired by the end of the run, but there was cups of tea and biscuits with the chaps and several more of the club at the end, which was marvellous and revived the spirits.

It was really great to have a bit of company, and another bonus was that I was finished with my run and back home by 11:30am - whereas normally I am still dithering about and not even out of the door by that time.

Brilliant.
Thanks guys!
