A return wobble up the road

Yes yes yes. I have actually got out for a "run" in the loosest possible sense. After completing last year I had to stop over the winter - yes I know it's now mid summer, and have taken ages to convince myself to go out again after running out of excuses. I did nt really know where to start so decided on run 1 of week 4 and it went quite well I did doubt my ability to do the last 5 mins as I was pretty knackered after the middle 3 minute one bit complete I did. The pace well let's not go there just to snails that we're out in the rain waved as they went by.......

Well done you Tombenoly . As we all know, getting started (again) is the hardest part.

Those showy-offy snails annoy me too! Keep up the good work. Great :)

Well done for getting back out there. As you'll be told many times slow and steady is the way forward so don't try racing those snails, won't be long before you're sailing past them!

Happy Running!

Stopped for the winter? Where are you running?

Anyway you're back now, which is the main thing. Enjoy yourself. It's a bit cooler today, and I hope where you are it's not lashing it down. I got drowned. Hey ho

Good luck with your return to running!

Ha ha in the uk. I had to stop in December as my scleraderma meant I had open areas on my toes and it's taken me a while to get rid of all the other excuses lol

Excuses are what gremlins dream up and stuff into your head whilst you are sleeping!!!

I thought perhaps you were in Norway or Iceland! Tee hee

I have skin issues too, which cause me much annoyance. I have wet excema on my hands which flares up when I start gardening, or even holding a plastic dog lead for goodness sake. It must be a git to have similar with your feet! You have my sympathy!
