My day went downhill at about 10.15am but before that it was
almost close to divine.
We started a new routine this morning, Paul got up with me
at 6am and lit the fire as its now cold at night, cold enough that I have ice
on my windscreen when I get in the car, very thin ice may I add but ice all the
same.
We then had a coffee from the maker that’s now set each
night to brew at 6am – part of efficiency Nova Scotia (ok just efficiency us)
and then he took Alpine out for a walk, that meant that I could take Duke for a
run as soon as he got back and that’s just what we did.
We left in darkness and it was chilly! I was starting to
doubt if a fleece and a bodywarmer was going to cut it but it did. By the time
I turned the corner onto Oakmount the sun was rising and reflecting in all the
windows of the houses there, it was gorgeous. When I ran towards Ryan I could
see the golden and red trees and the sun was brighter.
It was quiet, it was just me and the dog and Tom Petty
playing on my i-pod, some mist and the rising sun. I felt at one with my
neighbourhood, I felt fantastic.
The sky grew a lighter shade of blue and the sunrise lit up
a couple of those barely there clouds so they turned pink and glowed in the
blue. Such an expanse of sky here, it was stunning.
So, I got my 2.5k in and got home to the girls up and
dressed and contemplating their breakfast options.
A great start to my day
