Bought some new running gear for Week 6 . H & M had some quote "breathable quick dry" running pants and tops at around 20 Euro each. Black stretchy capris and a bright fuscia top with "built in bra" (hahaha - fat good that'll do me as am a D cup) but will match with purple face during Week 6. Check out H&M - sizing a bit on the small size, had to get a Large although I am normally an M but they've got great fluoro colours - orange, yellow, green.

Good tip, thanks. We're at the same stage - I did W5R3 round Swiss woods this morning! A celebratory outfit for week 6 is a great idea!

Wow Switzerland, that ups my Berlin!

I'll be doing Week 7 (hopefully) in Oporto as my eldest is doing a year in Portugal and I thought it was a good excuse to go with her and have a short break before I start lecturing again.

Laura is certainly going international, isn't she?

I've lived here longer than in the UK now, like you in Italy I guess! Never been to Berlin, it's on my list, but I've had Laura in Austria too... she's a well-travelled lady! :-)

Oh you lucky people I have only met Laura in Coventry, but in 2 weeks I will be taking her on holiday with us to Lanzarote and hopefully do a few runs. :-):-)

This post has made me chuckle! Laura has been with me this year to Bournemouth, Austria (though very steep hills there, wish I had left her at home)! and a day trip to Hyde Park!!

Furthest Laura's been with me is mid Wales way back when I started. Love the way you're so co-ordinated you even get your face to match your top!!!

I think the trick is to get the top to match the face. ;) That's why I'm looking at the red c25k grad t-shirt...

Laura's coming to Crete with me next week. We're going to work up a sweat in proper Greek heat!

Super! Laura's certainly getting around - you can treat yourself to some excellent Greek food after the run without feeling guilty too. Have fun!
