40 minutes with Steve Cram this morning...

I woke up thinking I CBA this morning but the sun was shining and it was 13 deg so suitably cool for running, with the rest of the week looking a bit dodgy. I decided to repeat one of the 'Beyond C25K..' runs as I needed Steve motivating me, rather than Coach Bennett being too cheery on NRC for my mood today 🙂. So the 40 minutes Stamina run it was - a bit slow but almost 6k with Steve - I'll take that. And a good little reminder when he says at the end 'I bet you didn't think when you started C25K that you'd be running more than 30 mins'.... too right Steve! 30 seconds looked impossible back in January....🙂

Thank you; next plan is to take up some regular stretch sessions in-between the runs.

That is really kind of you to say so... I know how folk inspired me, when I began running nearly nine years ago...It is good to know that we are all supported and that the folk sharing ideas are runners, just like us.

My first mentor, ( now Ambassador), was poppypug ... she kept me going through thick and thin and even had us all dancing around together on the Friday Dance! :)

She did some ace posts and was an awesome runner too ! I am still here, because of her... :)
