Happy new year folks!

I did my first run of the year this morning, and first run for 13 days, and paid for it!!!

Had to stop twice, not out of breath but my legs were tired and face burning hot!

That'll teach me! Got a 5k in though only a couple of mins longer than usual so not as bad as expected!

I didn't manage the park run before Xmas due to germs :( but perhaps mid January instead when I'm back up to speed!

Happy running lovely forum folks!
