Day 179 – Week 26 – 26 mins

What a joy it was this morning not to have to get myself out of bed at 5.30 – especially as I hadn’t got home from work until after midnight.

Instead – around mid-morning I went for a lovely jog in the park.

I love my park. It is actually the grounds of an historic house – and my favourite thing about it is the people who come and walk their dogs every day.

They are an eccentric lot. It was a pretty chilly day today, but that didn’t stop little clumps of dog walkers, sitting and drinking tea at cast iron tables and chairs half way out on the cricket pitch. The tea is served from a caravan parked on the side, and the dog walkers are there every day, regardless of the weather. They drink tea, while the dogs entertain themselves running around the pitch.

If it is raining, the walkers move into a fairly substantial tent, which appears to be there just for that purpose.

It’s very British. I love it, the dogs seem to be having a good time, and it is a sight I enjoy every time I jog past….

Day 178 – Week 26 – 26 mins

Another half past five morning this morning. I can’t tell you how much I am looking forward to that day off tomorrow.

But, did the deed, stretched and strengthened, one more day off the list. I’m seeing that half way point approaching, and would really like to have something to show for it!

And it’s day 5 of the alcohol-free spree. So far so good, but the weekend is on its way…..
