Running to read

  

 

     I was amused - and amazed - to see that Danielle reads while at the gym! (and by the way, I can thoroughly recommend her current gym book, Elizabeth Jane Howard's Slipstream: A Memoir), but her revelation leads me to ask if anyone else reads in an unusual place or situation.
     I do go to the gym (and that disclosure may surprise some who know me!) but I've never thought of trying to read there. However, there is a connection between reading and running in this household as Mr. C. very kindly brings me a cup of tea in bed early in the morning and leaves me to read while he goes for a run. I stay warm and snug under the duvet with a good book while he goes out in the cold and dark wearing trackies and a silly hat; chacun a son gout.....
     I only ever seem to read in ordinary places, and I never even read 'under the desk' when I was at school, so I hope the less conventional among you will, like Danielle, surprise us with your 'reading in/on/under...' or 'reading while doing....'
