Lol! Hadn't seen that post before. Not sure if it's a cult or an addiction! Either way I feel great after a run, even when I feel dead :)

I actually checked out a running book at the library this week! :-) this is coming from someone who despises exercise!

I can relate!! I just went on Amazon and bought some running stuff.

It's amazing how quickly it can get you:-)

Rest days really suck, don't they. Oh well, only 12 hours to my next run!

Almost scary, isn't it qdaisy? :-) Gayle and I have found that running discussions have started to replace the discussions of dessert and cocktails!! Well, not completely, but sometimes!! Keep it up!!

LL - personally think this site should come with a health warning - starting C25K can seriously change your life :-) I am in the middle of wk9 and been laid low with back spasms - even on full strength ibuprofen i cannot break into anything more than a slow walk - but I am really missing my run!!! Have I been body snatched by the NHS?;-) Well done you for getting to this stage!

same here. I do like exercise, but have always despised running. I forced myself to do a bit when I was about 18 or 19, but nothing since then. Now I love it, just spent a fortune (naughty) on some new running gear, mostly long sleeved running tops, waterproof, etc (can't wait for them to arrive, despatching on Monday) and bought Women's Running magazine yesterday. What is the world coming to? My friends won't recognise me soon!
