Ten miles!!!

Ten miles. Yes - ten miles of interval running today with DD!! After a difficult 45 minute interval run on Thursday, as she still recovered from her trek up Snowdon, we just about managed ten miles today. What an achievement! And after doing our 5k Parkrun yesterday too! Yesterday's run was good, with both of us beating our times from the previous week, so we're both really pleased. 

I'd had a couple of days off work last week too, so managed to get some whittling done at last. It gets a bit messy though ......

However, I've managed to make a letter opener (picture to follow), wax the bird I made back in April, and start another spoon and another letter opener. And I now have a sore hand from holding the knife for so long! It's been good though, and I've really enjoyed it. 

And today, after the ten mile run, and tomorrow are all about chillin. Finally. After charging round for days and being busy crafting, cleaning, ironing, walking the dog, cooking, sorting the cats out, and running with DD, it's time for us to chill in the great outdoors. A night away in the van. And, hopefully, a gentle walk tomorrow. We've driven a lovely road in the North Pennines and seen some fabulous views ....  

.....followed by a quick stop in Brough where we saw this....

.....and now time to chill.......
