not a good run by my standards, however I have to say that is my standards of today in week 9. By my standards of week 1 this is a world record breaking run !!!

looking forward to my graduation on Friday morning :-)

1. run a park run with the goal of a sub 25 min time

2. build up my distance by 10% a week to get to 10k

3. run 10k Chilham Kent in October

4. run 3 times a week without fail

5. loose 6 inches of my waist

6. build up pecs I have NEVER had :-)

7. from there very interested in trail running

8. Learn to tie your shoelaces(!)

Wow, good plan, you've had a think about this. I have some similar ideas, not quite as definite. I'd like to sidle up to 10k, possibly find an event at the end of the year.

Best of luck for Friday.
