Taking Kim for a run. A run with a nice hill.
Achievement unlocked
Doing stuff we’ve been putting off doing to try to get a sense of achievement from something. Anything.
Doughnuts
Kim made doughnuts.
Day 48 of lockdown. Ish.
Go see the sea
I miss the sea so we’re going for an appropriately social distanced family ride just to see the sea. And smell the sea. If it smells sea-ey today.
Also, a little virtual reality stuff and thoughts.
Shooting stars
Mountain biking locally every other day in a sunny spring is great.
The kids like to be stuck indoors during this lockdown, so it’s even harder getting them out than usual. Annabel loves her mountain bike though so maybe now is the time to start practising some trail skills?
Also, a meteor shower.
Staying at home is nice
Is this the 4th week at home? My mind and body have found a new normal, and they’re both happy and settled with staying at home. I’m getting work done, home stuff done, we’re finding new things to keep us interested and challenged, and it’s great spending so much time at home with family.
We’re healthy, fit, strong and happy, and hopefully we’re keeping ourselves that way. Family vlog!
Let’s Go For a Run
Week 3? 4? indoors. I was kind of getting used to it but now I really need to get out for a decent run. Want to go for a run?
I will be cheerier next week, I’m sure. Some fun stuff will be delivered for us to try out.
Self
I need to have a chat with myself.
Shutdown
Like everyone else, we’re at home, indoors, for 23 out of 24 hours a day. But we can still run from home, cycle from home, and strength train at home to try to stay healthy, mentally and physically.
So what’s going on? What else can we do at home?
Isolated Surfing
The weekend before the UK gets locked down we get out to a huge empty beach and sit in the sea alone, surrounded by nothing. Except mushy waves.
And Kim goes metal detecting.
