Morning Run: It does drag on
steevc just finished a 10.74km run, that lasted for 69 minutes.
This run helped steevc burn 833.0 calories.
Description from Strava:
It was looking nice out today, but I think there was some frost overnight. I was not feeling cold once I got going. I started off taking a look to see if the new electric car charging points in the village had been installed, but there is nothing yet. It may be that they do it this week. We can charge at home, but if you do not have a driveway then it is difficult.
The Millennium chip shop and Chinese takeaway had their lanterns out as they will celebrate new year soon. This will be the year of the dragon.
I did variation of my usual loop. I was feeling a little drained after parkrun yesterday and my hip is playing up. I kept running anyway.
There were quite a few other runners out today. The better weather may encourage them, but I run all year. I took a slightly shorter route through Stotfold that came out by the Co-op. I was following a lady runner, but she left me behind.
It was looking busy at Stotfold football club. I have never been to a match there, but they have a nice ground. I am just not really a footy fan, but I know lots of people are into it and the small clubs do a lot for the community.
I would not have wanted to run much further today. Doing two days on the trot is tiring. I will keep doing exercises for my hip as I want it to improve. It is actually an issue with a tendon rather than the joint.
As usual I had some chores to do. The chickens needed cleaning out and I had to deal with an electrical issue. I do get some time to chill out. We have also done the preparation work for our solar installation that should be happening next month. They had a cancellation, so we got an earlier slot.
Run free!

Glad you had a great run! I'm ready for Chinese New Year, but since I'm silver/gold stacker my version comes in buying coins. Year of the dragon coins go up in value no matter what!
That's great news on the solar, cut that electric bill. I'm a big believer in saving money. How long in the ROI on residential solar over there?

It does drag on.
Yeah for a really long time.

Ha! Will you be celebrating? We've had takeaways from there over many years. They do good fish and chips too, as well as the legendary battered sausage!
It's been a nice day.

We usually have jiaozi/gyoza. But we have them all the time anyway. I follow a few people in China on here, and they often post pics of amazing-looking food. 🤤 Keeps me inspired to cook my own!
Have fun!

I think as an Environmentalist I got excited knowing you’re about have a solar installation.
Would be so excited to have an update when it’s done.
I will be posting about it. I'm excited too.
Alright
No debe ser fácil una carrera con ese frío y las altas temperaturas de tu país..
It's a lot less extreme than other places.
Great going on the 10k despite the hip acting up. The strengthening exercises will definitely help speed up the healing and get you back to your old self!
Love the little lanterns. Year of the Dragon, here comes Steeve!

The weather has improved so much. Today is like a spring day over here. 13 degrees with patchy clouds. very pleasant. I'm going on a long walk towards the evening. Everyone around me is ill with a cold. I almost caught the cold, I felt the early signs of it, but I think my body fought it off.
You would absolutely smoke almost all of the members of the Hash House Harriers. You are fast!
