Starting from scratch again...

I completed the C25k last summer and then fell back into my old habits of sitting on the couch and drinking too much wine... But over Christmas I entered a 10k (having not done anything since early September) so I started right back at the beginning and am just about to move onto W4R1. Didn't think the first couple of weeks would be so tough but I'm through them, my shin splints have gone and, despite trying to avoid icy morning, I'm enjoying it. My 10k is at the end of May - and I'm quite looking forward to it.
