Me? Yeah, just nipped out for a quick half marathon before lunch 😄

For 'funsies' 🤣 Not my best time, but oh boy! was it hot out today 🌞
So I've got home, fed the cat, fed myself and showered. Look at the state my hands were in, and that was with gloves 😄
This is what I had for lunch, proper athlete fuel 🤣🤣
Plus a protein shake.
Now I only took a couple of photos because this was purely for exercise and not adventuring, but I'd have felt guilty if I didn't take any at all 😊
Hope everyone is having a lovely day ❤️
Note: I can do a thread on tips and advice for endurance wheelchairing if anyone is interested. There's more to it than just pushing a lot 😄💪👨🦽

Doing distance in my chair is one of my favourite things. I also do full marathon distance (also for fun) but not in this heat 🌞🤣. I'm planning to do 46 miles on my 46th birthday next month.
I'm nothing special, just have a lot of determination (brute force and ignorance as we say in the North-East 🤣).
Usual disclaimer: I know all disabilities are different. But, I hope my determination helps to show other wheelchair users, especially new chair users what is possible. Hopefully open up their world.
