    Images from my run this morning in order from beginning to end. Saturday running is just rough, but managed 4.1 mile run plus cool down on this most auspicious of days, the day I was born 41 years ago. The rest of the day will be spent in the company of family and friends in the middle of the lake where unless I recently became a divine being, no running shall ensue. Many adult beverages will be consumed(I'm not driving) and fun to be had by all. Have great runs today everyone and I'll see y'all tomorrow. 😃🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️💪

    Have a great Happy Birthday!
    And be safe......
    Don't forget to keep those life vests on.

    Evening everyone. First day of September is a rest day as hubby was away playing bowls.

    What is "playing bowls" ?

    when Ice curling meets bowling on grass.

    Bahaha it's more exciting than it appears, granted is mostly made up of older players. He's one of the top players in our region.

    Was planning a long run this weekend, but it is in the 90s so thinking of planning a rest day instead...

    Run! Lol

    @biketheworld & @juliet3455 Thanks for the information. I'm all for feeling less drained at the end of a long run. I know I will have to play around with the run/walk ratio and see what works best for me. I imagine it will change as I run more and get more fit. I do think it will help with my mental confidence to do longer runs and survive. Being older (59) I am hoping it will help reduce injuries too.

    @Avidkeo I love your view this morning. Even with a blowing gale, it's beautiful. I, too, hate getting out and running, or doing anything else, in the rain and wind. I hope it calmed down a little and you were able to get your run in.

    Trying the ticker. Let's see if this works.

    First try didn't work. Second one did. BTW, is there no way to delete a post once you saved it? I tried to delete the above fail, but couldn't figure out how.
