Its been 4 days since my last confession...

Dear road,

I'm sorry I haven't been to see you since last Saturday, as you can imagine I have been very busy. Sounds like an excuse doesn't it but I truly am sorry.

With 7 of us to move in just a short time I have struggled to fit in the most simple of tasks, my days (and nights) have been consumed with stress and packing.

As we have now relocated I hope to visit you again very soon, maybe even Thursday night if everything goes to plan. If not, definitely on Saturday morning, it'll be just me and you, like before.

Our peace, our sanity, our time.

Thank you road for giving me a place to think.

Love, 7-of-us.

Well, last saturday I flew (ok, that's not true but it felt great) I did W8 R1, and then continued on to complete 5km in 33minutes. gave me the biggest smile and confidence I have felt in a long time. It was early morning drizzle but brilliant start to my hectic day. Fitting any sessions is difficult and although my progress has slowed right down now (living with your In-Laws is going to effect a lot of things isnt it!) I'm still following C25K, still pushing on to graduation day, its just taking a little longer than I had hoped but with cracking runs like last Saturdays the spirit is still very much willing.

LOVE your attitude. Love this post.

You have a lot to cope with at the moment, but I hope that when you do get out to run it is a welcome freedom from your busy world and helps you to BREATHE :)
