Well, reporting in to my follower that this 72.33 year old has done it again.
I first completed Couch in 2014 and then again this time last year.
Regular dear readers will know that I was set back considerably with sepsis at Christmas, and in an attempt to re-build muscle, started again in the Spring. I got as far as Week 6 when injury struck.
After a visit to an antipodean physio in August, I started again, but on his advice doubled up on all the weeks up to and including Week 5. That paid dividends.
So it has taken nearly four months to complete, but the runs from Week 6 onwards have gone well.
I wonder do I get an extra stripe on my Graduation badge?
Today in Laura's forty minutes I did 4.01 miles at 10.15 minutes per mile - a bit better than my previous graduations, so age has, so far, not withered me.
But - I did this run on a treadmill - because Storm BuggeryBollocks or whatever this particular one is called has hit us at 65mph and swallowed up my running track.
I am putting a link to a video of what I should have been running on below: Not sure if it will work....
Thanks for all your help and encouragement everyone - I will stick around to find out what happens next.....
Congratulations Duddles on your running achievement, this storm is called Diana, it was named by the Portuguese Met Office due to it's storm force 10 winds at the Azores which the authorities there have closed nurseries and schools.
