Carrot And Beetroot Smoothie, Runstreak Day 10...


Hard work on the tired legs trying to run everyday, but still managing to do my #runstreak.

Nearly had to stop my challenge on Tuesday as I had planned to run with friends at the running club that night.

I had a shock when I arrived home from school ( long story short I found my husband very poorly on the floor with a bad case of vertigo ).

1 hour after phoning the NHS direct help line and the doctors I had to run to pick up a prescription up for some strong medicine.


Even though I didn't want to run I still got my 3 miles run in that day,really need to get back into the car again after 10 years off driving!!.

On Wednesday morning I managed just under 6 miles and another 5 today.

Today I'm sharing a healthy smoothies with beetroot. I've heard they say  beetroot can improve running ...
