It’s been a funny old week.  I’m not sure, but I do get the feeling of being somewhat separated from the other Happy Cows…. Maybe it’s just because I’m on a bicycle instead of running?  I hope that’s all it is…

Anyway, this week I suggested that we could run from my place.  No takers.  Well, to be fair, Ceri was up for it despite muttering about ‘long way to go’, but otherwise a deathly hush.  Weird or what?

So the Melodeon Master very sweetly helped me to do Other Training Stuff to take my mind off it.

Despite the blistering heat, I thought I would run to the top of a Very Big Hill.  Actually it’s a volcano - I know, how rare is that in Wales?  Anyway, here’s me pointing at the pointy bit which is the highest point.

And here’s me pointing at it again after I’d run it.  Odd how I don’t look ANY different in the ‘before’ and ‘after’.  I did run it, honest!*



And then the Melodeon Master suggested we had an ice cream.  We didn’t see Ice Cream Sian and the ice cream (quite nice, but not up to its usual standard) now seems to be in these funny little pots.  Again, weird.


And of course I swam - no pressure on the knees in swimming, is there?  The pool is bigger than it used to be too.


And then, because of my being deserted by the Happy Cows, the Melodeon Master found me a new friend to run with.


And LOOK - he’s going to go at my speed!! [Thought I’d put that in before Fit Mark does].  Seems to have an odd projectile spitting habit though….

All in all it’s been a slightly detached but nicely relaxing week.  And very hot.  And I’m now a Brown Cow.

Normal service will be resumed next week…

I think.



*Oh, ok then - it was last year when I ran it.  I really did…
