Graduate top arrived today!

Tried it on with my new performance trousers from Lidl (not sure what kind of performance, ballet apparently) and I only looked ridiculous rather than totally ridiculous. No run today as it is a rest day and, as I will be traipsing around fields most of tomorrow looking at tractors, I think I might wait until Sunday for my next run (stamina).

Just waiting for my badge.

Congratulations. Everyone needs a reward for graduating. I bought myself a new t-shirt for getting through week 5. Well done you for completing the course..

Ballet/Running, sounds like an interesting new hybrid sport :p

Lol, I got some Lidl performance tights, for £7, bargain! They're rather strange, with purple knees, for some reason, but they're nice and warm. In fact just what you need for ballet practice!

I got some of those as well, they are ace to take camping, take up no space at atll, when the weather turns a bit cold put them on under my jeans, great job, I was as warm as toast,

I had a debate with my wife whether running in my new Lidl trousers would be obscene. I'm puzzled as they are called performance trousers but the box refers to them as underwear. Considering that our Olympians appeared to have forgotten their kit and so had to run in their pants I think I would be in good company.
