4.5 miles and rising

I'm really enjoying my running at the moment. I'm slow very slow and am gradually increasing my distance. I increased my weekly mileage from 10.2 to 11.1 so am hoping will be ready for the blaydon races in early june. Will hopefully increase it further next week. Hopefully i will make my longest run up to 5 miles. As well as the improving stats, I'm really enjoying the running itself i run through a lovely riverscape and it is just so invigorating and enjoyable.

That's the important thing, to enjoy it, it's for nothing if not. Nice one Marc.

Catchmeifucan is exactly right, in the end, it's all about the enjoyment and the love of running. Well done :)
