Janathon Day 6 - A Man, a man...?!!

The last day of the Christmas Holidays, so I made the most of it and stayed in bed until half 10 this morning! 

 When I eventually got up and dressed we went for a walk with the dog! It was dry for once but there was a lot of mist hanging around in the air. We decided to go up Arnside Knott as it is fairly close to home and we haven't been there for a while. Usually there are spectacular views from the top across Morecambe bay and the fells but not today ... a low cloud hung around spoiling the view!  It was a nice 3.35 mile walk which can be viewed here.

 After the walk we had Sunday Roast at lunch time (usually we have it later in the day) so that our son James could eat his last proper meal with us before he got the train back to Uni and back to Pot Noodles!

 Once James had been packed off on the train I came home and decided to go for a run before I got too settled on the sofa. It had gone really cold but it was still dry so life was good! I set off and had only been running about 5 minutes when I bumped into 3 friends,  I felt obligated to stop and chat but forgot to pause my Garmin so my times will be all to pot! Never mind! At one point I was running along a pavement towards a mother with a small child on a trike and she said to him "Be careful of the man running!" - MAN?!! Does she need to go to specsavers or do I need to start wearing gels in my running bra!!!  Charming! 

 I saw lots of other runners today but nothing interesting happened, and I did 6.47 miles! You can view my run here.

I start following my Triathlon Training plan tomorrow - I'm not sure if I am feeling excited or daunted!

    Great job! This is my first Janathon. I registered last year but didn't follow through with the blogging or support, so this year ... I am!

    Good luck!
