First week 2 run today with Laura on the pod cast. I had a few to many last night and didn't rally want to get up but managed to force myself out of bed. We take the kids swimming on a Saturday so I went in the car and started my run whilst my wife took the kids in to get changed. Works out just about right for getting back to get them changed again at the end of the run. The extra 30 seconds started to tell on the last 2 runs but made it to the end no problemo. Off out after lunch to get see about new running shoes, I went to Milton Keynes to sweat shop yesterday but they had nothing in there under 90 quid, going to Bedford to nolimitz see what they can advise.

Well done. Once you find shoes that seem right, you can often find them cheaper on line. Also, if you tell them your budget, sometimes they produce some of last years models at reduced price.

Got my new shoes and did my 2nd W2 run yesterday. Went OK until right at the end when I was taking a different route back and run in to a massive muddy patch and got my new trainers covered in mud. Run 3 tomorrow.
