The streak day 2

So it would appear that despite my better judgement I am Still Ill and after waking up  (and STAYING UP) at 4am completely congested I dragged myself back to work for the first time in 2 weeks only to be sent promptly home by my manager. I promptly slept half the day on the sofa and was supposed to be going running with the Trundlers this evening but they all protested and said I shouldn't as Im still rough, and I DESPERATELY want and NEED to be better for the graduation of our first C25K ladies tomorrow eve. Anyway I was so determined to do my streak and not fail on day 2 that I got my running stuff on while it was just still light and treated myself to 1km. Up and down my garden LOL. Now luckily I have a large garden but I also have four amused children, 2 confused cats and no doubt some still sniggering neighbours.

The most interesting thing is just before I ventured out into the garden my son #1  (aged Nearly 12) said "You need to go and run in the street, Mum, not just the garden" "Why?" I asked him. 

"Because when you go out and run you INSPIRE people. Thats what everyone always says when you post about running on Facebook, that you are an inspiration so you need to run out on the streets where people can see you"

I am absolutely gobsmacked. And ridiculously proud of my son for noticing what I do, and being so very supportive. And I'll tell you what. Im rather proud of me, too, for trotting up and down my garden, scaring my cats, slipping on manky apples, receiving a face full of cobwebs as I circled the rotary washing line for the 19th time and no doubt now having a street full of neighbours that finally have the proof they needed that I am, in fact, bonkers!
