OMG went much better than I expected and hoped......

I blogged earlier about getting back, and I have only just gone and done it! Got home, and after the shock of finding my son cooking dinner, got my gear on and within 20 minutes of being home was on the treadmill. No podcast, but had the plan written down..... but got on treadmill - no glasses = can't read workout plan! Called through to son to get him to read the Wk1 and by the time he had deciphered it, I had already done 2.5 minutes, so decided to carry on regardless. At 5 mins, decided I would walk, so walked for 2.5 mins and then ran again for 5 mins!. After another 2.5 walk and another 5 min run, I hit the 25 minute mark and walked at a good pace to the 30min mark! and have now only gone and done week 5 run 1!!!!!! Am I pleased - you bet I am! Just need to keep it up now!

Wow! Really good way to get back in to things! And son cooking dinner - you're all made up!

plus son has said he will come running with me! He used to play a lot of sport, but is not quite as fit now as he perhaps ought to be. However, his girl friend has started running and he does not want to be slower than her!

Good for him!
