Sunday runs with Mother: Ep.1

My friend has just started 'couch to 5k' - which is apparently an attempt by the NHS to get people moving as we approach the hibernation season. An interval training approach to fitness.
Having told Mother of my friend's new goal, she has decided to join in. Although Mother prefers her version; "Sofa to 1k". 

I intend to force Mother to stick to this activity every Sunday - partially so that I can document any mishaps. You may think a light Sunday exercise should not create a blog-worthy post - but you are wrong. 

As I approach Mother's bedroom to collect her, I see this:


 
























That is indeed Mother in my Halloween costume. 

She informs me that she actually has no "running gear". Apparently my Grease Pink Ladies jacket was a suitable substitution. 

We all look forward to the next one. xoxo

P.S. I demanded the jacket back before the running commenced. By 'running' I mean 'light prance for 1 minute and then a lengthy break on a bench'.
