Short post just thought I'd share the pictures of my run. Almost recovered now. New max heart rate at the end 189 beats per minute. Sprinting as if my life depended on it. Hope you enjoy them. I did!

Thanks Emma you really need to change your name after your result and lose the Tortoise - just Turbo Runner

I'm quite attached to the name now, and speed is all relative. Also there is a real live pet tortoise in my life and he might be offended ;-)

Thanks Tomas. I did regret not wearing the superman tights

Great pics, GF. I'm impressed with the shorts in this weather!!

I hadn't realised just how terrifying the polar bears were until TurboTortoise and your posts today ... I don't care if you're all giving out free hugs, back away sunshine!!

Great collection of photos GF! Although I don't agree with your comment about the "fat boy". Definitely not. Where's the photo of a bear hug?
