Running to enter the #AlphabetChallenge #WeekSforShadows (If this picture looks familiar, then it probably is, I posted it a couple of days ago on my other "photography only" account. I since changed my mind about having two accounts, one specifically for photography, so the other one was deleted)

Nonsuch #parkrun this morning, Jeffing for the first half, then #walking with a friend for the second half. Royal Marsden September Challenge walk 4, about 20 km completed in week 1. Another good turn out, just under 1000 took part. #RoyalMarsden #CancerCharity

Nonsuch parkrun and 5K Your Way. We also remembered David Gullen, a Nonsuch 5K Your Way ambassador, recently lost to prostate cancer. David always finished his run with arms outstretched and "flew" into the finish line. Just over 1000 attendees. #parkrun #5KYourWay #5KYW #MoveAgainstCancer #Nonsuch

A rather nice harvest from my small garden this morning. Still loads of tomatoes, beans and courgettes to come and leeks & carrots have been planted/sown in the tubs that had the potatoes in. Pleased how things are going despite the continued lack of rain #gardening #homeproduce #growyourown 🍅🌱🥔🥕🌧️

Tomatoes. We sow them, nurture them, pot them on, fret over them, plant them out and care for them. Then you look at your pot of sunflowers and find half a dozen have sprung up from your home made compost and are happily doing their own thing. I've got more "volunteer" tomatoes than any other 🌱🍅

Gave #parkrun a miss today (at my age I'm too fond of a lie-in to get up early every Saturday 🙂), so I did a local 5K My Way #walk instead 😀 #5kyw #5kmyway #walking
