Stronger with every step

It is a beautiful sunny Bank Holiday Monday. Not often you can say that. I went out for my run about an hour later than normal. And with no pressure to get to work I decided on a long slow run. And that is exactly what I achieved. I ran 7.7km at a very slow pace. I probably pushed the distance a little further than I should have but I still felt as if I had something left in the tank. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Happy runnings folks.

You are going about the rehab in the right way. Well done mon brave.

Well done . "A giant leap for mankind". Bet you feel over the moon. It can't be helped but sometimes things come on in leaps !

That is incredible, you must be really chuffed. A long, slow run. It even sounds poetic! :)
