Phew! I hit the milestone I’ve been working towards for a few months now. So aside from taking two weeks out to move house / recode the Oak website (!) I’ve been running a half marathon a week for a few months now.

Today marks 21 times I’ve run a half marathon ( 21.1km ) or longer on a Sunday.

Of course today is the day I have a bit of trouble too’ In the last few hundred metres my thigh twinged painfully, and I got to the HM distance but couldn’t really manage much further. So I had to spend the next hour walking home! Via Greggs for a snack, which was an odd experience that I’m not sure reading lots of William Gibson had prepared me for.

Thanks to Nemone for the music on this one - the Six Mix with Peggy Gou was pretty great. Acid and electro through Hyde Park was perfect. Even had a lovely Halcyon remix in there that raised a smile!

I’ll stop there because I have a blog post in all this that I’ll write separately and post in the week hopefully.

Thanks to all of you for your encouragement so far. Quite amazing going from no exercise to speak of to a weekly half marathon. I’m not quite sure where this has all come from!

Moving house has really thrown me out of my rhythm. That plus the Oak project which I’m working on. Long days! Sometimes fourteen hours at the computer helping build it all.

So today I braved the heat and went for a slow 10k, following a path wherever I could find shadows to keep out of the sun. Lovely dappled light in the park.

Thanks to Caribou for the music this time!

I’ll write this up in a bit

Phew. So I’ve not completely lost my ability to run in that gap of a few days. Nice to get out!

Today was a bit wild - the Duchess of Cambridge gave an assembly on the Oak website and we had tons of vs visitors. Biggest day yet and not without a few hair raising moments making sure it stayed online, which it did. Needed a run after that!

Okay, house move completed! And previous main project concluded. And new main project going gangbusters! It’s been quite a week but I managed to get out to keep up with my running and it was lovely to be out so late in the evening and it be so light. Quite different to how it was a few months ago when I started all of this!
