Well Good morning blog watchers.
Yes I know today is Sunday, and this is not me just writing because I'm bored. This is me writing because I actually went out jogging today, by myself, before church, before son even reached REM sleep!
A tiny bit of bittersweet news, nagging sister will not be nagging sister anymore, nagging sister, is going to be jogging alone, around her area and her routes. No, the nagging didn't prove to much for me, and I did not kick her to the kerb, in fact I will miss the nagging old bat! The reason is that she has found employment! Great news for her, but sad news for me, but I still have my other buddies to jog along with and keep me motivated and push me along.
So today, I thought I would try and start with an early morning jog, try it on for size, now the warm weather is here, it might suit better?? who knows.
The old man was getting ready for work, I was getting ready for my jog. Stretching etc, getting my water ready. I set off while the old man was still here, I'm not sure if that was some sort of amusement or amazement written on his face, I shall have to find out later. Jogging the 2.61 mile route which is the route that I have done for the past couple of times seems daunting on my own, but I wanted to conquer this feeling of loneliness and dread, and 'I cant possibly do this by myself' attitude and get on and do it.
IPOD switch on I'm heading up the road, I get even further than I ever did without stopping but I still cant quite make the whole way round this route, or any other route for that matter, without walking. A christian song came on my IPOD which kept me going as I was singing along, what the people thought as I passed by I don't know.
All the way round I am nagging myself like nagging sister used to do.........hark at me, she only just told me yesterday that she starts work on Monday and it already I'm speaking as it was ages ago that she was last jogged with me............ Actually it has been a while since we jogged together!
Anyway to cut a short story even shorter, (because I have a BBQ to get to) I did it 34:20 seconds! That's my personal best so far on this route!!! so Well done me.
Oh and church today was blinding, Mr.Preacher man was talking about that we are not alone, we are not unique, ok, so he was talking about our problems and stuff, but today I needed not to have felt alone because I know I got all you guys willing me along and Him upstairs keeping safe!
Brilliant day today, now, wheres the burgers and beers!!!???
