Well on a day like today when the weather goes from pouring down to stopping in a matter of minutes it was always going to take a bit of luck to avoid getting soaked. The original plan was to go out at lunchtime, but events transpired against that, and it was lucky they did as [...]

Well today I was a bit of a victim of timing, when I got up this morning it was sunny and so I thought I would wait a bit before going for my run. Then as I took Sam to cricket it started to rain and then didn’t stop for hours. So, eventually I waited [...]

So another Saturday morning and to be honest I was feeling tired this morning and sitting on the sofa seemed a better idea than actually doing anything. Oh and it looked cold outside! Eventually I summoned up enough energy to get myself ready to go, on with the jacket and out the door. I decided [...]

It was grey and cold when I went out at lunchtime, and I only really fancied doing the minimum today. However, once I got going I was feeling ok and was going reasonably well so decided I would do a bit more. The route went down the Ebury Way to Rickmansworth and then back along [...]

Well I think my Garmin is Lazarus, it has risen from dead to once track my runs. I have no idea how long it will last, but it’s good to have it back. I have to admit that today on my run I did have two Garmin’s on, just incase it didn’t last. We went [...]

A disaster occurred to day, my Garmin has completely died. I charged it up after yesterday and it said it was fully charged, and then when I went to turn it on at lunchtime for my run it wouldn’t come on. No matter how hard I pressed the on button nothing happened, I tried charging [...]

Saturday morning and a run in the rain to kick off the weekend, where has the sunshine gone? I decided as tomorrow is the BOB Challenge I would have an easy run as I didn’t want to stress myself. I did a simple lap of the village and whilst it was raining it was ok. [...]

A pre-work run this morning and judging by the weather for the rest of the day it was a good move. The day dawned bright and sunny, not overly warm but ok and I had already decided to just run round the roads in Watford. So with a route set and the sun making an [...]
