Food for thought today and that includes those pesky greenfly which insisted on accompanying me again! So humid, maybe that's what's bringing them out. I was even hotter as getting over a cold that I've had for a few days.However feeling very inspired after reading 'Running Like a Girl.'

Recommended on here by 'mehitabel' on her very inspiring blog. I thought, forget the cold, take a hanky and a throat sweet. I wore my new running shoes they were fine just think I need to get used to them after my usual ones, which I'm going to alternate. Well a weird thing happened after I forgot about dodging flies, Laura's voice came over and said I had a minute to go. I was expecting her to say, 'you're half way,' weird I don't remember running those 7 minutes? I even checked my phone to make sure I hadn't started it half way thru.' The last 8 minutes were fine, just so hot and very glad to stop.

Feel fantastic now must have blasted the pesky cold away I hope, now off to watch 'Mad Men,' and relax!!!

Happy running

:)
