Legs were feeling tired today, so rather than #running the 8k in my #Runna plan, limited myself to a 2 mile run on the #treadmill. Walked into town and back, another 2 miles. Then, decided to try out #Rouvy. #RunEveryDay #GetFitStayFit #cycling #strava #56MilesInFebruary #ProstateCancerResearch

Just signed up for a trial of #Rouvy. Wow, downloaded and just been taking a look at some of the routes. Love it! Off out, but looking forward to a spin later!

"In Norway, Tesla saw a 38% sales slump, in France sales dropped by 63%, and in Spain by 75%. Tesla sales dropped 13% across the whole European Union last year and are expected to fall further... Tesla registered only 1,277 new cars in Germany in January, a year-on-year drop of 59.5%."

Trump is on the brink of betraying Ukraine and the UK. Britain must lead in Europe by increasing defence spending immediately and all political parties should get round the table to make that happen. I fear what happens if we don't take this step.

Bannon has a bit of a "I can't afford to sue all of you if you call it a Nazi salute" half heartedness to it that Musk's didn't.

Day 52. Legs feeling tired this morning. Combination of cumulative fatigue and the shock of being outside instead of on the #treadmill. So just a mile this morning with a stop at Cooplands to get some pastries for breakfast! 🥐🥐 #Runna #Running #RunEveryDay #GetFitStayFit

Had to travel in to the office today, but with some warmer weather, had to get outside for my #RunEveryDay #Running when I got back home. It was after sunset, but I was actually too warm! Needed to ditch my top layer! 🥵 #Runna #GetFitStayFit #56MilesInFebruary for #ProstateCancerResearch

Day 50 of my #RunEveryDay challenge, and another 2 miles for the #ProstateCancerResearch #56MilesInFebruary challenge. I even finished with a little 200m sprint. Well, a sprint by my standards, but probably just a light jog for many! 😂 #treadmill #running #runna #GetFitStayFit #RED050

Calling Zelensky a “Dictator” must be where the line is drawn. It is my sincere hope that the whole political spectrum in the United Kingdom will speak with one voice in opposition to Trump’s lies.
