I'm off to Gayle and Smhall's for the party, so long as they don't mind an incredibly sweaty bright pink person joining them! Just got back from W9R3!!!!!!

I've been surprised at this week's runs, last week was so incredibly hard! 28 minutes absolutely shattered me. To the point where last Friday evening hubby and I were meant to go out (date night) but I ended up curled up on the sofa for the evening after the run (in fact they were lucky to get fed dinner!).

But this week has been easy peasy and I've even broken my programming on all 3 runs and not stopped when Laura's told me to!

Today's stats: Total time (I remembered to set the timer going on my iPod) 35 minutes 22 seconds

Total distance (according to map my run) 5.04Km!!!

Fantastic - well done and welcome to the just-post-grad world of Stepping Stones, Speed and Stamina!

Your stats are almost identical to my 'own music' run last week - isn't it a pity we can't go out jogging together?? ;-)

Fantastic news, congratulations....what next :-)
