W5R2 done - can't believe I've said that!

After a pep talk from GrannyJudes - listen up Peeps - decided I really had no excuse so put on my running gear, including brand new bright pink top, plugged into Laura and off I went on my old route as there aren't so many inclines. Started running and for the first time ever found a pace that didn't leave me wanting to stop after 30 seconds, result. Could have gone on when Laura said stop. Half way through the second 8 minutes I hit the seafront and nearly got blown back to where I started but at the same time Laura said I was half way through so with my new mantra playing in my head (GrannyJude says I can) I carried on. When Laura said stop I couldn't believe I had done it.

GrannyJudes and lose it (plus so many others) you are such an inspiration, please don't ever stop posting.

That's not called lowering the tone, that's called telling it like it is! Oh and thanks
