Another weekend Down
'Tis was a quiet weekend with a lot of cake, some running (lotsa running) and some fairly cold weather that left some lovely frozen drops on my top while out on my long run on Saturday morning. We woke up and it was well... well below zero. I went out into the lovely cold weather, started running and as my muscles felt like they weren't warming up, listened to podcasts while counting the miles.
Somewhere along the route I had a drink... and noticed small particles of ice starting to gather on my top. I thought it was a tad funny. The last time that happened I was running up a mountain in freezing weather and half expected it to happen when they started serving sherry at the water stations.
I finished the run and my hands felt like they were frozen in place... a hot shower later I was ok, but my feet felt like bricks and I spent about half an hour sitting in front of the tele before taking Elizma shopping in Nottingham. Andy and Fanie stayed home and made the most of the unlimited access to the television by playing endlessly on the XBox.
Saturday evening we went out for supper and on Sunday morning I woke up to some pressies and cards and a HOT mug of coffee.
The rest of the day was equally great and relaxing and even though I got a card that wished me a happy 30th birthday on my 29th birthday, I was fine :)
Now a new week starts - only EIGHT days until Christmas!
