Over the weekend I managed both ParkRun and a 10k short long run!
ParkRun was great - I hadn't managed it for the previous 3 weeks (felt like a lifetime) and I was well motivated by my friend and part-time training partner Andrew. We took it gently (he is nursing an ankle injury worse than mine, unfortunately) and got round in 31:55. My ankle is holding up very well, with only a slight ache after the 10k that was gone by the end of the day. So, that's almost it. This week I've run a 5k (Tuesday, 29:50) and I'm planning a gentle ParkRun on Saturday, plus plenty of yoga (today will be day 22 of "30 days of yoga with Adriene") and maybe some meditation, possibly a bike ride and/or swim. Not to mention a spot of carb-loading on Friday and Saturday! We also had lots of fun trampolining at Rush on Monday (where we were lucky enough to have the place to ourselves for half an hour - the joys of home educating). Bring it on...

After an hour with a tutor, what better way for the two youngest to spend some time but bouncing off some excess steam on multiple trampolines with friends?
And us mums, too! So off we rushed to Rush in High Wycombe (very punny)... With over 100 trampolines, plus foam pits, and assault course, basket ball, dodgeball...well it's impossible to get bored! Our hour was over way too quickly and we will definitely be back. Apparently it burns more calories than running for an hour. I think I'm a bit too tentative for that just yet, but it certainly worked my calf muscles which has to be a good thing for a runner, right? And the kids had a fab time too. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Thanks Rush! |
