If you can keep your head when all about you

Are chasing Panthers and blaming JuicyJu

If you can trust your body when your mind doubts you

But make allowances for a trip to the loo (Delia)

If you can lie in but not be late for dinner

And befriend that couch in the afternoon

Then yours is the C25k website and everything that's in it

And - which is more - you are a runner, and don't you forget it

With apologies to Kipling.

Hi Delia after reading old neds reply on my post a few days ago I thought he spoke a lot of sense and maybe my physio, being so young, is being a bit over cautious, so I have decided to go out my usual three mornings and jog walk, did nearly 4 k this morning, then see how my shoulder is after my holiday, if still in pain then see a sports physio . Off to Lanzarote next Thursday so will be jogging early morning with a lovely sea breeze. Hope alls well with you. By the way what has happened to Malky, I used to enjoy reading his posts. Pat . :-)
