And so, the first week of Juneathon draws to an end. My mileage has been nowhere near as impressive as many (I only clocked up enough today to make double figures), but I have enjoyed being active and the fact that my ankle so far remains pain free is very good news. Tomorrow I am going to go to my local Park Run where I will no doubt run my all time personal worst, but I am looking forward to it anyway. It’s been a good week.

On the way back to the tube, I was insanely jealous of all the small people with their ice lollies. This then reminded me of a text from my friend… View Post
