I did this run 2 weeks ago but a holiday and some treatment for my plantar fasciitis got in the way of finishing the week, so my aim is to do the full three runs this week, my Christmas present to myself will be my graduation badge!

I must be in the right mindset, getting up at 7.30am on a sunday morning -what has happened to me!!! It was a lovely morning, mild, dry, pretty sunrise.

My legs felt like lead and I wasn't at all sure i would finish it but i have a friend who is in hospital at the moment and i know how dearly she would love to be able to walk let alone run, so every time i felt like giving up i thought of her and it spurred me on.

Two more runs to go!!!
