Sandstone trail easy run
Got a morning to myself. Popped over to the Sandstone Trail for a nice easy 6k run.
The temperature was 2 degrees Celsius as I started off. Looks like the cold weather is upon us. There was lots of wildlife scampering out of my way. Cutest had to be the young squirrels.
Also gave my Innov8's a try out again. Taped feet appears to help.
Lauren Wednesday
Went out with my princess to the Trafford Centre yesterday evening. Did not have a great deal of time as I had worked late to make up time for having some blood tests in the morning.
Really enjoyed the evening. Got in some secret Xmas shopping and picked up a repaired travel case. Lauren got a new Jane Norman bag thrown in.
Got home late but managed to get to sleep quickly.
Chicago - Opera House
Trees and I picked up Lauren and went over to see Chicago last night.
Much better than I expected but I am not sure Lauren was impressed. I guess she enjoyed it but Lauren has seen the film first so had certain expectations.
We had a pizza to start the evening with so meant a cold walk along Deansgate.
It is getting noticeable colder now that November has started. Seen temperatures of -1 Celsius already. The clocks going back an hour last week makes it feel much more like winter. That cold I had to wear a jumper. Trees and Lauren were wrapped up in full winter gear.
Core stability
Managed to fit ina core stability session Thursday night. Stomach knows it has been worked!
Fireworks Bryn Y Grog
Just back from a fantastic firework display. One of the best I have seen.
To add to the fun there were rides and games stalls. Great fun.
Met Roger, Debbie, Danny, James, Pat, Paul, Beth and the boys there.
I can recommend a night there next year.
Saturday Wrexham
Did some Christmas shopping in Wrexham today. The traffic was unbearable.
Needed a sleep when I got home to recover!
Sunday long slow run - 3 hours
Set off a little later this week. Meant there were more people on the trail but not enough to spoil the beautiful views and the autumn sun.
Kept my heart rate under 144 beats per minute. Meant I had to walk up the steeper sections but it all added to the enjoyment.
Took a little time out to take some pictures. You can see why I enjoy it so much
