I never ran a step until 2009! I trained for and ran a Race for Life in summer 2009 and that was the first time I had ever run 5k without stopping. It took me 32 minutes (approximately, I didn't have a proper running watch!) and I can still remember how I felt when I crossed the finish line. That was definitely when I properly caught the running bug

My first was Balmoral 5k and I felt sooo elated. That was 2007 I think! Maz - early pm sounds good. A long lie sounds like a brilliant idea Give me a shout later in the week and we'll make arrangements! Anyone else fancy a wee cycle?

Umm, well I actually can't remember it exactly ok, so it was 6.07, but in my defence I had glandular fever (I didn't know that at the time, I just thought I had a bad cold but when I got my blood results back I got a very big lecture from my gp).

The JDRF 10k run (and 5k walk) takes place at Hazelhead park on Sunday 16th September if anyone is interested in a gentle and popular charity run. For added humor value I shall be running it in a Panda outfit.

Oof, glandular fever is nasty, WKP. My son had it at about the same age and he was in hospital for two days! Shame they have cancelled that 10k JR, I was just considering doing it after reading your first post, then I read your second post..... |
