I know how you feel. I was all set to graduate by the end of the year but now starting week 7 again due to the weather, Christmas etc. I mostly run at night and it has been just too icy around where I live. Tried the treadmill but just don’t get on with it.

Oh well, we will get there in the end and I guess the main thing is we are keeping going!

It isn't the easiest time of year for any sort of challenge, especially this year with the extremes in weather and high levels of challenge from various lurgies.

But we have a brand new year and lengthening days to look forward to. You'll crack it.

Plus, sliding down things is great fun and climbing ladders is excellent exercise.

Hopefully once that lurgy passes you'll be back on track. I seem to have been on week 9 forever!
