I ran in the gym today .... I may have run faster I have learnt I prefer outside running. Now if 15 weeks ago (-I had a hick up & repeated a few weeks...) if anyone had said Hey you’ll live outside running I’d have laughed. But... I do!!! Still 3 1/2 stone to loose but it will go !!!!

Keep going all. If this 55 yr old can do it so can you x

Going indoors from running outside, do you not find it a bit boring indoors?
