running

[ju-ju-]

Been at a conference and had withdrawls so it felt so good to get back to my running today and some normality.

Me and the lad ( my beautiful 11 year old, Leon) have been doing stamina for a while now and blimey its still so HARD!!! I still have death moments and the gremlins are all there, but boy I do just love it so. I so want to get to 10k but I want Laura not that American lady ( although I'm sure she's delightful)!! I bought my lad a Garmin as a huge treat for doing well, and working hard in prep for his sats. He so loves it, and today he did 6k in 35 minutes, compared to my 5.5.

I would love to be like those people you see jogging and not like beetroots or on deaths door....does that ever happen?????? In preparation I have just bought some gorgeous shorts and vest for the summer months

Happy running everyone

Very best wishes to Leon for his sats - hope they all go really smoothly for him. Fingers crossed for this week. I had a big grin on my face when I read you'd got him a Garmin - you lovely mum!

You're both running so well. I bet he loves being faster!

Thank you so much Greenlegs and yes he loves being faster but he's so sweet and sprints back to me and then runs off again in a cloud of dust! He is SOO made up with his Garmin it's really given him a focus. X
