Yesterday was Operation TR24 Training day 1! My aim was to complete four 5km runs, which I didn’t do – but I am counting the day as a success. I ran 2 5kms and a 6km, but my ankle was starting to get sore and baby Neon was getting a bit whingy and running a … Continue reading »

Untitled #482 (Another Running Gush)*
I have a confession to make. I do this: Except not on a treadmill. Out in the world. And I mouth words to songs I’m listening to. And, I’m not embarrassed about it.
