So this past few weeks I’ve been getting over Covid and been training as and when I can. I have done some time on the Treadmill, Turbo and time on the pavements. I even took the dog out for her first run. I know she loved it.
The past week I’ve been struggling mentally again and spent most of it on my emergency meds. Sometimes it makes you feel ‘why do I bother’. But I won’t give in, I took my family to Bridlington on Friday to scatter Paddy’s ashes.
We’ve been Bridlington a few times now and the miles of open beaches are wonderful for a nice walk. Paddy loved it here; so we thought it was an apt place to let him free. The kids really enjoyed their time too. I felt sad letting paddy’s ashes free, but knew it was for the best. He loved the beach here.
I knew getting away for a few days would help with the mind and I didn’t take my ‘emergency’ meds all weekend. I also got up and did a 40 min run before the others were even awake. The sea air really does me good. Although in this photo I seem knackered.
When we got home today (on the Sunday) we all had a very Lazy day and watched the England football match. Overall, it’s been a very good weekend. Next weekend is the Para Duathlon.
