So, day 5 run of roctober (see yesterday's post) did not go so well. I set of with the dog as in the previous 4 days, but after a couple of miles he emerged from the verge just as I was passing and we collided, he with a few yelps, me rolling onto the floor swearing at him. A bit of skin off my knee, couple of cut fingers where I tried to break my fall and a bent finger nail. Not very nice and for a while afterwards I could feel the blood trickling down my knee. Strangely, it was nowhere to be seen when I finished, but I'm sure it was gushing out earlier.
As I type this, my nail is throbbing a little to remind me of it. Luckily I will live.
To prove how alive I really am, I managed another 5 miles at lunchtime today. That's the first time I've ventured out at lunchtime at the current place of work, and I am now sat at my desk feeling a little sweaty. Hopefully as Autumn kicks in it will cool down and will not be so bad.
