went on my normal run...ok, plod, but as i was getting to my turning to go home point, i just went on and did another circuit of the lower part of Scotstown moor, and i felt fine, ok, my hip was screaming at me but i feel ok. Been using my ipod but just put one earbud in, i feel safer that way, going to treat myself to some new tunes today, and even when the rain came on it didnt bother me, i think im beginning to like this running thing
