Today’s weather was a massive bitch.

I decided to go on a 6 miles run and as I walk outside the small drizzle turned into a thunderstorm. Ok maybe I’m exaggerating but it certainly started to pour down seriously. It kind of pissed me off (pun not intended). The thing is – I’ve been doing the same loop over and over again and it’s basically along the main road and utterly boring. So in addition to that it was pouring down like crazy. Sigh.

But then (!!!) I discovered a fantastic path. I have no idea why I never saw it before. So what started out as a 6 miles road run turned into a path/trail run.

I love trails. Love love love trails.

Gosh I had such a blast. Who needs partying when there’s trail running.

Gosh, running is such an unattractive sport. I looked like a mess when I got in but hey what are the chances I’m going to bump into the man of my dreams while running through the woods near Finchley.

But then again I also love surfing and that’s also not the sexiest sport out there. Well apart from if you’re a sexy surfer.

I had a fab recovery pudding when I got in. Silken tofu blended with berries and agave (inspired by Tamzin’s fab dessert). And Mel poured me a glass of cider. My kind of recovery drink!

Now that we talk about food may I mention that today has set a massive milestone. Do you have  a vegetable which you really hate? Well that vegetable would be – in my case – Brussel’s Sprouts. Ewww. As a kid I was convinced they smelled like poo.

So in all fairness I decided to give them a chance so I roasted some for dinner tonight (with coconut oil, a drizzle of honey and s&p).

And guess what? I rather liked it. Still not my favourite veg but it was lovely nevertheless.

And now I’m chilling in my sexy socks.

Rawwwr!
