• Day 51 - Today was tough!

    2020年5月2日, アイルランド ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C

    After the news last night of the very slow unwinding of the lockdown restrictions, I found today tough. Judging by comments online though, I’m not alone. All I can do is to take things one day at a time and to enjoy each day as it comes!

    I started the day, as I always do on a Saturday, with the parkrun Global Quiz. You watch the quiz live on YouTube and then fill in answers on a separate website. This week I got five answers correct, my lowest score yet! My PB so far is eleven out of fifteen.

    After the quiz, I headed down to the field by the river to do my “Mona Fartlek” session, as instructed by the training plan I’m following. It was a really enjoyable session, even if I did end up running it in the boggy section of the field, due to the number of dog walkers around!

    When the session was done, I headed off in the car to collect my online shop. It was a big one this time - the boxes of Cheerios for Peter just seemed to keep coming! They were on special offer this week.

    The afternoon was warm and sunny, so we sat outside for a good while. Then I worked on two chapters of my chemistry book and we watched the film, Ms, Peregrine’s House for Peculiar Children. Peter said that films like that are his favourite type!

    From May 18th, groups of four people will be allowed to meet in outdoor places, so we’ve already arranged with our friends Brendan and Megan in Carrigaline, to meet somewhere on that date. That’ll be something nice to look forward to!

    I’ve the Wings for Life virtual run to do tomorrow, so I headed to bed early to get enough rest.
