Day 19 – Week 3 – 3 mins

This morning I had a shock when I got up at 7.30 – someone else was already up! I’ve got used to having the house to myself in the mornings, as everyone else, quite sensibly, has been using this week as an opportunity for a lie-in. But we brought some other friends back with us to the house from the wedding, and one of them is also an early riser. So when I stumbled out into the kitchen to put my shoes on for my three minute jog, he was obviously keen to know what I was up to.

To my immense relief he didn’t laugh about the whole idea, as a few other unkind souls have been doing. He totally understood the psychology of the one goal one minute experiment, and said he thought it was “fantastic”. So – with that vote of confidence I got my shoes on, and out the door for a bracing jog up the road and back.

And wonder of wonders, my dear friend had a cup of tea ready for me on my return. You can’t get much better than that!
