Downpour #Juneathon Day 12

On Monday, between my children (each of them blaming the other), one of the foam handle grips for S's scooter was completely destroyed. S's answer was that he should have a new scooter that went as fast as G's and he promptly went off in a huff when we told him that it was nothing to do with the scooter and everything to do with her legs being longer! So after work today, I headed to Decathlon in Wednesbury.

Decathlon is one of those places I have a love/hate relationship with. I love all the sports stuff they have in there and I have the fact that I don't have the money to buy all the stuff in there!

I managed to find some new grips for S's scooter and had a quick browse through the running section. I picked up a running belt, which can carry a water bottle and has a zip up pocket as well. It will certainly give me somewhere to put my keys when I don't want to either wear a jacket or have a rucksack.

Before I went into Decathlon, it was spitting lightly and I was more than happy to go through with my plan to go for a run as my exercise for the day. By the time I came out again, it was raining cats and dogs. Now I don't mind the rain, and I don't mind doing exercise, however I'm not keen to do get absolutely drenched just to go for a run (on what would have been a puddle-filled, muddy towpath) and so I parked that idea for another day.

Instead I jumped on the exercise bike and decided to take it slightly slower than I had earlier in the week, however my time for 10 miles wasn't too shabby (IMHO).
