I always love the way that a covering of snow on the ground outside reflects the day onto the ceilings inside the house and enhances the quality of the light. I would be a very happy guineapig for a dimmable ceiling full of LED lights, but in the meantime I enjoy our occasional snowy days [...]

Whilst I am generally up at 6am weekdays, I was clearly out of practice for early morning running, since Nick was gently tapping on the front door before I had even finished getting ready on Friday morning. We took a road run around Burgess Hill that started at a pace that I had also forgotten… [...] After a really fun, relaxing and generally somewhat studious Christmas and New Year break, FosterRuns got back to business this morning with a delicious run on a BEAUTIFUL sunny day! I had decided on the title above as I sat studying this morning, so there was little question about where I was going to run… [...] We were at a FAB party at Clive & Nat’s last night, during which time Pete & Cliff reminded me about the Mince Pie ten mile race this morning. Though I remember saying that I ‘might’ see them there, even then I was somewhat doubtful… I could list the reasons for my doubt, but it [...] The LED starlights were out in force in the sky last night and that translated into a chilly but beautifully clear morning. Apart from Thursday, where there might be a little rain, this is supposed to set the pattern for the week in the South, with some chilly nights but temperatures generally above average. As [...] After I pointed out the extreme clemency of the season yesterday, the weather made a half-hearted effort at producing winter last night. The sky was so clear that the stars shone like LED’s and there was already a frost on the deck when I went to bed. Likewise this morning at 6am there was a [...] It had been stormy overnight and I awoke to a wet, grey day… not an especially appealing prospect for a run. Fortunately it was still unseasonally warm here, so at least I wasn’t going to get cold and wet. I quite like running from my folks’ place in the winter and so it was 10am [...] Cliff’s offer of a run on Sunday morning was highly tempting, but my head presumably knew that I wasn’t yet ready for a long run so it didn’t wake me up until after he had started running… just in case! Though if he had said there were going to be bacon butties afterwards, then I [...] When I was staggering down the stairs at six o’clock this morning with stiff legs from Sunday and a painful back, the idea of going for a run seemed a little silly. However, I had arranged to meet the Bok for a slow run (HA, there’s two words that rarely appear in such close proximity!) so I [...] This time last week, BIG man Daren & I were returning from the Alps, where we completed the Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB) in 4 days and 20 hours. This is fast compared to the numerous walkers who take a luxurious 11 days over the route, but nigh on 4 days longer than the winner [...] |
