Hi All

Bad news is I haven't run properly since about August but I ran last week, Sunday morning and have done two runs this week, with another tomorrow (fingers crossed).

It was a huge relief to find out that the laminate in the conservatory doesn't enhance the noise of the treadmill too much when I'm running - yippee!

Even though my first run was only a mile (12 minutes), I was surprised I managed it "fairly" easily considering I've done nothing but eat since last year. I was also surprised to remember how satisfied i feel after a hard workout. Hopefully, the sunnier days will encourage my enthusiasm and I can get back to where I was last summer (3 runs a week, at least one being a 5k).

Go Go Jo!!!

PS: we have been in our house for two months now and it's absolutely bloody brilliant!!!

Welcome back Jana and well done in getting out there again. You never really lose all the fitness I think. And you've come back at the best time of year which is just magic.
