Day 184 - 10 May 2011

Tuesday
60 minutes running

My knee felt a bit stronger today, so it was 'run' day.  Incredibly mild weather again - 13 Dec C, but with a barely noticeable 3mph ENE wind  that couldn't even move a flag.  I had on my usual pink fleece, but it was really too warm for it.

The first sight of the sea, as I come out of my front door.  Lovely.

Had I not been tangled up with my headphone wire, I would have removed it and tied it around my waist - but the thought of untangling everything was too much to consider.

I ran my 'usual' route and was delighted to see Mr Early (he's back!!!!!!!), who I'm sure was looking rather tanned and rested.  I even managed to sneak a photo of him:

The now-famous Mr Early (who couldn't work out why I was taking his photograph...)
I am currently trying to work out the mysterious "bare footprints" that I noticed on yesterday's walk and on today's run....yesterday, I simply thought they were from early morning surfers - although to be honest, there's no such thing.  Surfers are not renowned for getting to the sea early.......they like to sleep in.  So how come these foot prints are staying almost fresh?  I saw some this morning.  And took a photo for evidence...

Look!  Wet, bare footprints........

Can anyone tell me whether an innocent wet footprint can remain visible from the previous evening?  Doesn't water simply evaporate after a while?  I shall have to investigate more on this.

As I headed towards the sea again on my way back, I spotted Running Girl.  She was wearing her usual bright pink top (we match!) and she was - as usual - running in the middle of the road (which somehow looks far more scary during daylight than it does in the dark) at a fast pace.

As I neared home, I then came across my police car AND David the 74 year old paperboy who shouted out a quick "HELLO!" as I ran past.  *sigh* All is right with the world.  The only person missing from this morning's run  was Mr Rude Navy - but I don't miss him to be honest.  Lightweight.

The night clouds are clearing
