A Quick Christmas Make

I’ve had a fairly quiet weekend, well, following an unpleasantly eventful dog jog on Friday night where Wilfie disappeared for almost 40 minutes. Apart from that I’ve done a little sewing, headed out to @clumberparknt for @parkrunuk (where I took this photo) and visited family. Today I was due to run a half but yesterday I decided I’d rather go to the match of the U14s I coach. It made me realise I need to give careful consideration to which races I enter so I’m not just entering for the sake of it. The reason I run is to enjoy the outdoors, to spend time with my dogs and help with my health, fitness and wellbeing. I think I only have a couple of races booked in before Christmas, one of which I’m excited about and one of which I deferred from last year and may well miss again this year. • • • #trailrunning #running #runningwithdogs #canicross #loveparkrun #trails #countryside #outdoors #optoutside #whyIrun #wellbeing #sundayrunday #autumn #fall #autumnleaves

This morning I ran with the dogs but as they’ve then snoozed the day away they were in need of another trip out tonight. I’m just doing a quick lap of the woods as it’s so lovely and autumnal. The daylight’s fading fast and I’m glad to have got out before dark. I’m dreading the shorter days when most runs and walks will be in the pitch black, although the lighter mornings will be welcome for a while. • • • #dogwalk #dailydogwalk #autumn #autumnal #signsofautumn #mushrooms #fungi #toadstools #wild #nature #natural #forest #woodland #optoutside #teacher5aday

Over the last couple of weeks I’ve been keen to dive back into sewing. I know it’s good for me in a mindfulness way and it’s good to focus on something positive. This weekend I’ve finished 3 garments; a @tillybuttons #sewingfreya (catch it in my stories) a @gertie18 pencil skirt (see stories) and today a #tatb #sewingagnes ~ all in stretch fabrics from the wonderful @fabworksmillshop I visited last weekend. I’ve also been trying to get to grips with my overlocker which seems to be going ok 👌🏻 I’m happy to have some new #autumn makes to add to my wardrobe this week 🍁 • • • #memade #Imakethings #sewist #tillyandthebuttons #sewing #sewingwithknits #Sundaysewing #overlocker #janome #stretch #cosy #winterwardrobe #rain #rainyday #roses #retro #agnes

Even after a decent morning run, the dogs are ready and waiting for an evening stroll so sometimes I just head around the block, particularly as the days grow shorter. We are still getting some beautiful sunsets so I quickly grabbed this pic last night as the light was fading. • • • #dogwalk #dailydog #dailydogwalk #autumn #autumn🍁 #humpday #wednesday #train #trainstation #rail #railway #railwaystation #trainline #distance #horizon #sunset #bluehour #fading #light #iphoneography

This morning I ran a local 10k where all proceeds go to a nearby school. I’d asked children and parents at my school to take part in the 10k and fun run as next year the race profits are destined for us 🙌🏻 It was a mixture of road, trail and a particularly unpleasant stretch of grass but I came in a minute outside of my Pb which I’m pretty happy with 😅 At £10 it was a bargain AND I just managed to see the start of the fun-run and be back in time for football ⚽️ • • • #running #runningmotivation #autumn🍁 #autumn #runninginspiration #trailrunning #trailrace #edf #powersurge #10k #medalmonday #power #powerstation #coolingtowers #industrial #energy #funrun

Usually I team up with Oliver for @parkrunuk but as he’s definitely a fair weather walker (he just about tolerates a jog, at his choice of pace) this morning I headed out with Wilf. Wilfie gets SO excited before parkrun: he’s just raring to go. Our first and third miles were pretty quick, and the second one would have been decent if we hadn’t perused the ground awhile to find the perfect place to, ahem, pause. Rain poured throughout the 5k and we splashed through puddles and waterlogged trails. This morning’s run brought Wilfie‘s weekly total to 20 miles - not bad for a wirey little Patterdale. • • • #running #runningwithdogs #parkrun #loveparkrun #parkrunbirthday #cannicross #autumn #autumn🍁 #trailrunning #rain #rainysaturday #fall #fallrunning #garmin #beatyesterday #october
