I'm so excited I have just run week 9 run 2

I don't think that I can quite believe that I have just run week9 run 2. The snow is quite deep round by me so I have found the run quite difficult. I'm also running with spikes on my shoes. I'm disappointed with the distance that I'm running and blaming the snow/spikes. I'm looking forward to running without both just to check that they are slowing me down. Anyway, it would be fair to say that I'm dead chuffed :-)

I think that I'll save week 9 run 3 until Thursday - my 55th birthday :-)

Don't be disappointed with the distance - be proud you got out and did it in the snow! Snow-running counts for more than ordinary running, at least my experience of it was that it was *much* harder in deepish snow, and the spikes must take even more effort. You'll probably surprise yourself when you get back to ordinary runs.

Enjoy your birthday and that green badge!

How fabulous, well done. The fact you are out there at all in this weather should be applauded so 'pah' to speed and distance :-)

Enjoy your graduation run and your birthday
