Well thats the first run of week 5 in the tank! Borrowing from Old Floss, ive done Snail in Hail and today it was a gale. But I managed to force myself out of the door in between downpours. Very nearly talked myself out if it but Im glad thats another one ticked off.

Although now another run closer to run 3 *gulp*
