Well I'm on week 8 but today it's a group run so I use my podcast for the music which gives the run that important rhythm. We ran for 37mins and nearly did 5k. We had rain sleet and snow at one point then sunshine. Legs ache a bit, see how they are tomorrow.

That's really good going especially at this stage. How many were in your group?

3 today. We meet on a Monday morning at a small community centre. I've just printed off my bar code for a park run.

Yes I will give it a go. Have you tried it ? Curlygurly2. I'm so pleased with myself as I have never done any long distance running and thought I couldn't run for more than 5 minutes. I think I'm seeing good results with my running - clothes are starting to fit better and I seem to have a bit more energy.

Really good progress and speed. I am afraid to run with others as I think it will make me run too quickly, so very well done

I keep them at my snail pace. I didn't know we done a good time.
