Week 1 done, twice and my first swallowed bug!

Just completed my second time around for week 1 and ready to move on to week 2 on Sunday!

Beating my records almost every time now. Furthest distance, fastest mile, km, etc, all fully logged here as always! :) runtastic.com/en/users/stev...

Touch wood, so far no injuries or problems, which is good. Even bought a £9 pair of running socks, to make sure I don't get blisters! :D

And also, had my first swallowed insect whilst running, which I think makes me a Real Official Runner now ;)

Here's hoping I can manage week 2!

Lol I swallow bugs/flies at least once a week, it freaked me out initially but now I accept it ( and try and run with my mouth less open haha!!

Bugs. A natural source of protein. Who needs expensive gel packs when all you have to do is open your mouth and collect nourishment for free!

Oh well, protein. You will be right

Good luck with week 2! I start my W2 R1 tonight - really looking forward to it - don't know what's got into me! :-D I've been waiting not so patiently these last two days for my next session!
