Life

The highlight of the week was taking the kids to The Emirates to see Arsenal Women play Man City Women (Woman City?). Ηη announced that the pitch was “slightly smaller than the one I play on at school” and “there are about the same number of people here who watch me playing football at school” (c. 40,000) setting a new high bar for bullshit. Αα was really into it and fully engaged for the duration. Ηη enjoyed being with Heather and remarkably didn’t get too bored. I’d chained the buggy up to a gate outside the stadium before the game – it wasn’t there when we got back. Turns out they take security fairly seriously, and a helpful security guard pointed me in the direction of where it had been impounded. I suppose I should be grateful it wasn’t destroyed in a controlled explosion.

Running

Got another 20 miler done. Fairly sure my sore foot is extensor tendinitis which I’m (rightly or wrongly) less worried about than if it were a stress fracture.
