My dear little Daffodil

Sleep well my baby!

As snug as a bug in a rug in her nice warm garage

I fired her up today... She started instantly and runs like a well-oiled Swiss watch

All my other cars received a quick service too, along with my bikes. All are good and happy

Delighted to receive this medal for completing the Cyprus International 4-Day Virtual Running Challenge

Made of wood - environmentally friendly!

And not only that, I also won a £10 Amazon voucher for submitting the best pictures of my running in this event

Next year I plan to travel to Cyprus to run it for real

In car news, I replaced the failing battery on Robyn's C1 today and then we walked miles all around Paggers delivering Christmas gifts to all of her Girl Guides... A supremely lovely way to spend an afternoon!

I recorded 32,000 steps today after running nearly 10 miles and then walking with Robyn! Not only that, we also did some more walking earlier to recce my Marshal Point for the MK Winter Half Marathon on Saturday... I'm running it on Sunday...

An awesome run early on this stunningly beautiful morning

Tongwell Lane

There is something positively magical about running very early on a clear, crisp, dry, quiet and still winter morning with just a few streetlights and your head torch to guide you on your way and before the great unwashed are even awake

Happy, you bet!

[CitroJim]

An utterly awesome MK Winter Half Marathon today ? One of the best and most enjoyable half marathons I've ever run

My fastest HM in a long while...

Absolutely loved it, truly magical

The wooden medal is ace And today is day 90 of my run streak and my 12th half marathon over 12 consecutive weekends

On the car front, nothing to report!

Regards Neil

No, but a couple of extra miles per cake.

No, but a couple of extra miles per cake.

No, neither the shoes or the cake are responsible... The real secret to my speed is chasing after attractive and shapely young lady runners in front of me

As well as running away from the large and irritated boyfriends of the aforementioned attractive and shapely young lady runners!

[CitroJim]

James, good point well made

Does this mean that your local speed bump installation engineer has an attractive and shapely daughter?

If he does, she'll be all tucked up in bed when I run by To be fair, most of the town is!

This morning during my run I saw a Geminid meteor shoot across the sky

Not seen a shooting star for years now despite all the time I spend running under dark skies so today's sighting was a bit special...
