Happy Valentine’s Day...
The weather is pretty crazy out there and it is rather windy
and rainy, but I’m so excited to be going out for dinner this evening. The truth
is, I have always liked Valentine’s Day, even when I was single. I know a lot
of people hold the negative view that it is just a money-making scheme conjured
up by card companies etc., but I’m not one of the haters. And, I don’t think
you have to go crazy or make it a really expensive occasion, but I think a little
effort is a nice expression of affection.
Also, I think there is so much negativity out there and stresses in
everyday life, so any day on which we make that extra effort to be caring
towards someone, is a good day. Of course, we should make the effort the rest
of the time as well...

So, I’m in London for a few days, and like the rest of the
country at the moment, the weather is unpredictable. However, I managed to
squeeze in a nice refreshing and rainy 5.70 miles, by the Thames & through
Battersea Park (I've never seen it look so empty...) in 46:21. I’m really happy
with that, because I really did resemble a drowned rat by the end of my run.
Thankfully, the wind wasn’t as bad as it has been over the past few days, but
there were a few sudden gusts around a few corners.
Right, I am off to relax with a coffee and warm myself up.
It’s a bit chilly...
