So... found this site in January.

Started the programme end of January.

Graduated 13th April

Minor op the 16th April

Started running again a week later.

(Head down, dig in, keep training)

Another stone off 3rd May (4 in total now)

Sunday 13th May - Glasgow Ignis Asset Management women's 10k - loved it. Fabulous atmosphere, weather rather unkind (read - freezing high winds and then driving rain mid way through) Delighted with my time, and would have been faster if I'd not been in completely the wrong group - but who knew'd I'd grow to love this and enjoy it so much?

anyway: 10k in 1.03.41

Next time - under the hour :D

Wow! Well done! I'm a bit nervous about putting my name down for a 10k just yet - but at the same time feel that by the time I'm ready all the events coming up this summer will have passed and I'll have to wait another year! You are an inspiration! :-)
