Joining a band of Merry men
Last night I needed to go run and I went off to the gym so I could run on the fields there. Unfortunately a sports team were occupying said fields and as I don't know the area, I had to be content with running on a treadmill for the first time in literally years. I got on and chose a screen to look at while I was running for the next 52 minutes. Next to me was a great big window through which I could look and if I looked downwards, I could see people coming in and out of the gym. The minutes flew by and at the end of it all, I was properly sweaty and hot. I've forgotten how different running inside is to running outside.
In other unrelated news : Yesterday morning myself and Andy were anxiously awaiting a phonecall from a girl in Coleshill. We're VERY keen to buy a certain house which is about 3 miles away from my place of work. As Jeff pointed out - running distance! The reason why we were waiting for this particular phonecall was because it would be the one that tells us whether or not our mortgage application was approved. With my visa there are sometimes a few things that gives trouble. Luckily this wasn't one of them. Our mortgage was approved and we're moving towards Sherwood forest! We're looking at moving in the weekend before xmas. Not only am I looking forward to having our own house, but I'm also quite excited to find new routes to run and cycle :)
