One good thing about the winter is that you don’t have to get up too early to catch the sunrise! ☀️A wonderful start to the day, #running in Beacon Hill Country Park, #Leicestershire! 🏃♀️

Deep sleeps the Winter,
Cold, wet and grey;
Surely all the world is dead;
Spring is far away.
Wait! the world shall waken;
It is not dead, for lo,
The Fair Maids of February
Stand in the snow!

So sad to see the world’s first #YMCA has closed closed! Had a great gym and pool which I used loads! A huge loss to London community, world history and #blackhistory! 🥲
