Half Marathon Training: Run 239 - First run in over a week and I felt it. Pains and aches in places I forgot existed! I’m really going to have to push myself over the next couple of months now. Fingers crossed.

As a side note this chat with Conrad was one of the most heart warming ones I’ve done. ☺️

Half Marathon Training: Run 238 - I forgot to post Friday’s run. Just another 5K and another fast one. I’m probably not going to be running for a week now as I’ve got some personal matters to attend to, but I’m hoping that next weekend I’ll get back to some longer ones.
8.3 - The Claws of Axos - I'm never sure where I sit with this story. I really like it, but it sometimes feels a bit flat. But it's thoroughly entertaining. The Master and the Doctor working together is gold. The Axons look great, and the story really utilises its effects. 8/10
8.2 - The Mind of Evil - This always feels like a hangover from the previous season. It’s a strong story with fascinating ideas. The prison setting grounds the story in reality and it features memorable characters such as Barnham and Mailer. Yates also gets lots to do! 8/10
8.1 - Terror of the Autons - The show gets fluffed up and loses a bit of its edge, but it also gains a lovely, cosy feel. Delgado’s Master is a perfect adversary for Pertwee, Katy Manning is perfect as Jo, and all of a sudden we’re in a comfort era. Oooh, and Autons! 8/10
Half Marathon Training: Run 236 - My 10K run from Saturday. It was an extremely stressful day and I don’t think I was at my best during the run, but I got out there and did it and it helped.
7.4 - Inferno - One the bleakest, most terrifying stories I’ve ever seen. Episode 6 is one of my favourite episodes. The whole story is so desperate with its haunting, ambient music, brilliant guest cast, alternate characters and terrifying early versions of the Primords. 10/10
7.3 - The Ambassadors of Death - It's a favourite of mine. Gorgeous music, great location work, brilliant direction, creepy spacemen (the scene where the Ambassador takes its helmet off...brrr!) It's maybe an episode too long, but I still love it! 8/10
Half Marathon Training: Run 235 - Today's very warm 5K run. I took a trip up to the woods to try and banish some emotional demons. It didn't really work, but it was a lovely evening anyway. Fingers crossed I can aim for a long one this weekend.
So proud of my little man after he took part in his first ever sports day yesterday. He makes me so proud every single day! 💙
And no matter how difficult my days get, he is my reason to keep going.
