If this was a running Juneathon, I would have run a token mile today. As it was, I still did a token mile. But it was walked. And split into two convenient bitesize chunks.
First up we had a walk up to see the midwife for my check up. All is fine and I am fairly certain that this is the first (and possibly last) time that I have Athoned with a tube of my own wee in my pocket. At lunchtime, this was followed by a walk from work up to the sandwich shop and back.
After work, we went round to mum’s to have a practise at assembling our new tent. Our old tent was on its last legs and the running repairs that we did last summer weren’t likely to hold up to another week away this year, so we’ve invested in a new one. It’s a lot more solidly built than the last one and is somewhat roomier (planning ahead for next year…). Assembling its colour-coded parts was a little Krypton Factor-like in places, making it both a mental and physical challenge.
If you’re a novice camper, I would heartily recommend having a test run of getting your tent up. Preferably before you go away. Preferably where no one can hear you scream.
lol. I am not sure that I would recommend running with a pot of your wee!!!
Just a wee little run.
Nah, the first time we pitched our tent we were at a wedding, I was in heels and we’d had a couple of drinks. Went up no problem. All previous attempts, with colour coding and good, thoughtful planning have taken an age.
You’ll need a tent with wings in the coming years, not the flying type, but the rooms-going-off-in-different-directions type.

Haha that is solid advice about the tent! last time i camped I got so angry I had to go have ‘quiet time’ behind the tree! I think I embarssed the whole camping party!
