We went out two days ago for another week 1 of couch to 5k but Mr 5 just didn’t want to go. He was too tired, he had an itchy foot, he had a stitch… and that was after only a short distance. He complained so much we ended up just going home early. Miss 7 was really disappointed.

This morning I realised that he was feeling left out because the mp3 player earphones didn’t fit in his ears really well so he couldn’t use it. So I offered him the Garmin, which measures distance. He was rapt in that, so off we went. They did great, finished the 30 minute week 1 program and went the long way home, total of 3.36km. The dogs enjoyed it too, but I had some difficulties. My shorts kept falling down, and dealing with that as well as two dogs who were determined to make macrame with their lead - well, it would have made a funny video.

Not sure if I’ll get out for a run this weekend, a few things on but I only need half an hour, so I’ll see what I can swing.
