Who knew - I have some yellow running kit now ;)

I was looking though my blipfoto this morning and discovered my running adventure started on 12 July 2013, it was a spur of the moment thing while out with the dog wearing fitflops. I only did about 10 minutes (of run walk) because I knew I had to build up slowly and I knew I was wearing ridiculous shoes. As far as I can tell I continued my efforts until around late August just doing my own thing. Then I gave up but I knew I wanted to try again but properly and so started couch to 5k February this year.

So my adventure began a year ago.

Wow.

Happy Anniversary and happy new socks. Looks like a bit of M_Y influence here maybe? ;)

Happy Running Anniversary, Spoonie! :-) You've come so far; be proud! :-) I do like your yellow socksies too; nice to see you have yellow running gear after all! :D

Thank you. I looked at the yellow shorts again but alas I fear it is a step too far, maybe next year. I also found the mythical running skirt in decathlon, if you could call it a skirt, I thought it looked more like a belt. Ummm will have to re-think, I like the idea of being extra girly, maybe a tennis skirt?
