Reasons to be Cheerful: Week 13 #R2BC

Reasons to be Cheerful at Mummy from the Heart

Clare is still looking after the linky over at Seasider in the City so please have a look and say hello! Meanwhile here are my reasons to be cheerful this week:

1) Go me!

I haven't had one of these for months so I am so pleased:



All the hard work of running and dropping the calories paid off with a 3 lb loss. Now I just  need to watch out in the school holidays that it doesn't creep back on again... But that leads me on to:

2) School Holidays

We all broke up today and its nice to think we have just over 2 weeks with no school. Hoping to mix up chilling, getting out and about and house sorting! Watch this space for what we get up to.

3) Running

I am well into week 8 and its 28 minutes at a time! Funnily enough the first time I did this in the snow I just managed it but today I set off too fast on first half and struggled. Its fab to be going twice around the loop now and I just hope that I can squeeze in my 3 runs a week whilst kids off school. It does help on sunny days when I get views like this:




4) Walk in her shoes

I may have finished the challenge a while back but my local paper has only just put me in the news:



Its not too late to donate to help Care International provide safe drinking water to more villages.

Why are you smiling this week?

    Huge congrats on the weight loss and the running - I'm struggling with both and the school holidays will only make it harder! PS I've no idea why an old post is appearing on the blog hop, weird or what :)

    Congrats on the weight loss. What a beautiful place to run in, that must be quite an incentive.
