Running or gin

Two posts in one day – must be a record! I decided to do a quick run to try out my new gear and get my head sorted. My granny always used to say ‘don’t get old Julie’ and I tell you, it’s no joke. My poor dad is seriously declining and is falling and the whole thing is just a nightmare. Old age is not for wimps. So it was a gin and tonic at 5 pm or a run, so I thought the run was a better idea. Still having the gin though.

The new runners seemed fine. New liner socks too which I thought felt a bit warm compared to my existing ones, but will see. Also got a visor instead of a hat. It felt a bit tight but definitely cooler (temperature-wise) than the hat.

It actually rained on the second mile but I didn’t mind as I had got the washing in before I left and who doesn’t like summer rain? Gin and dinner next. In that order.
