a funny run


Thursday 9th June 2011

Scene 1 Act 1:

Jude is in the kitchen doing her pre-run limbering ups, the sun is shining, all is well and a good hour after a yummy M&S sandwich (my mum always said wait an hour after eating before I jump in the pool).
Enter stage right, teenage son looking for a laugh.
Boy then takes the p**s out of his mother's attempts at lunges and squats and is actually looking like he is having some sort of 'turn' but actually says some other non-pc type descriptions.
Mother is now experiencing side splitting laughter @ son's impersonation and has to sit down to stop the tears from rolling down her face
Mother slightly put out of kilter, decides that run she will!!

Scene 2 Acts 1 to the end:

Despite her giggles quite randomly and embarrassingly in front of random dog walkers, the mother sets off and does a maintenance service type run, of a not to be sniffed at, 4km.

  • distance 4km
  • time 30 min with 5 min walk warm up thingie
  • number of inappropriate giggles in front of strangers 2 
  • number of commas needed when writing a play-quite a few!

  1. Made me laugh. Very glad to know I'm not the only 'looney' laughing out loud while running while reliving somethng.
    The joys of teenage sons!
