I Did the C25K+ podcast...can someone bring me something deep fried with lots of chocolate?

[MrsPsycho]

Today dawned and brought with it yet another weekend shift at work, a long, long dragging shift which involved copious amounts of my running from one end of the place to the other (I keep reminding myself I won't be doing it much longer as, if you remember I mentioned going for a job interview, I will be starting a new job soon).

The last few days have also bee full of a metric ton of various paperwork and running around to different places for Hubby-to-Be and myself (we're in the process of buying our own house, there've been times when I thought 'crap, why did we start all this?') this as well as taking 2 minutes to buy HtB his suit for the wedding and the various bits of wedding planning, we've just about remembered to have time as a couple where we're NOT filling in paperwork and double-checking it.

So, tired as I was, I got home from work determined to go for a run, I downloaded the C25K+ podcast and set off.

I managed the majority of it, though found it hard to keep my shoulders back but relaxed, look ahead but don't stick your chin out, count 1-2-3-4 but pay attention to Laura talking whilst focusing on the music, etc etc,

I think that the podcasts, like the programme, were not made with hilly, rural Wales in mind as I've discovered it's quite hard to co-ordinate all that with trying to run the steep farm path around here and not slip on the algae covered tarmac.

But the point was I went for a run when I didn't feel like it and as Laura says 'a bad run's better than no run'....and I want some chocolate now please?

I'm in the Pennines, and we are soooooooooooo lucky to have that kind of resistance training on the doorstep ...xx

You will get so much more fit though. Those hills are very good for the abs! Free workouts too.

I sympathise - not in Wales, but we do have hills, sheep who stand in front of you, mud and yet more mud. I had to have afternoon tea of chocolate spread sarnies after my run yesterday
