The entire school (where I work) walked down into town in a 200 child long "crocodile" and then had an hour and a half wait for them to turn up! Thankfully it was a lovely day so it was quite a pleasant experience. There was lots of flag waving and excitement when she eventually arrived and one of our 8 year old boys got to give her a flower posy! Certainly a day to remember!

So after a very exciting day I still needed to fit a run in! I waited until I thought the intense heat had gone from the sun at around 6.30pm. Luckily I was only meant to do a 30 minutes easy run as the sun was still very hot!
I found it exhausting and finished my entire bottle of water after 3 miles - it was that hot!! Anyhow, I managed 3.85 miles in 36 minutes! Not as slow as I had first thought considering the heat!

I am definitely going to get up early in the morning for tomorrows 40 minutes run! I already have my clothes ready in a neat little pile with my garmin, hat and sunglasses on top at the bottom of the stairs (so I don't wake everyone up!), my water bottle is filled up and in the fridge! My alarm is set!
No excuses acceptable! (although when the punishment is a torturous run in the sun I won't be making any!)
