Rain - It’s a Cult Thing
Oh, joy of joys. To wake up at 6 a.m. and hear the rain battering against the windows, and to roll over & go back to sleep. Nope, not for me though. I was up & at ‘em, wondering around the house collecting extra layers, fretting about how waterproof my clothes were . ....

Easy Paced Run
With only about 7 weeks ’till the North Tyneside 10k, it’s time for Shana to start doing some longer runs. So this morning we did 6 miles - with three walk & drink stops. See? I’m not as heartless as everyone says.

Pantomime Horse
On Saturday the pistes were all really crunchy - a slight thaw on Friday night had been followed by a re-freeze. Ordinarily this wouldn’t be a problem . . . but there were also a whole bunch of day-tripping skiers around, going at it like lunatics. So VonSmallHaussen and I just did a couple...
