Week 6 done !

Never thought I'd get this far. I actually ran for 25 minutes last night ! Apart from feeling like I had clown feet on the warm down 5 minutes I actually felt ok ! No aches this morning and I am really looking forward to starting week 7 tomorrow! Our Laura called me a "runner" which made me giggle out loud, the Canadian Geese think I'm nuts!

Well done, Lisa! I'm only a couple of runs ahead of you, and am still amazed that I, yes, overweight, middle-aged, unfit *I*, can run 25 minutes. And still feel as though I might be able to continue a little bit further! What on earth has happened to us? ;)

It's a fab moment when Laura calls us runners. Well done.
