Juneathon Day 18

After eating Spaghetti Bolognese for lunch, the only form of exercise I got was when I had to make a dash for the bathroom. In future, I need to remember to add mushrooms to the list of foods I should avoid eating when possible.

Although I couldn’t run I could still read about running, so I was pleased to spot an article in the Guardian listing five novels that every runner should read. I’ve added a couple to my “want to read” list.

I also found this BBC article about the drugs testing system in the UK really interesting. Although the article made me pleased I’m not an elite athlete, it also left me questioning whether other countries are as thorough.

Hopefully the mushrooms will have completely cleared my system tomorrow, I want to run!
