Hindsight is indeed a wonderful thing!

So, just a reflection on this programme so far. I re-started back in November 2012 after being plagued with shin splints. If only I'd had the right shoes back in July 2012 when I first started. Oh well I have to be positive my quad is nearly back to normal, I walked four miles yesterday round the park and I think I will be back next week with my first run in two weeks, hurray! Graduation back on track...

Thanks both, just feeling bit sorry for myself! Yes will start back very cautiously I think I would have given up this running lark ages ago, if I didn't love it so much!!!

:-D

Good old slow and steady! Hope it goes really well for you and those legs behave themselves and you'll be back to having fun. :)

By the way, I love your icon. It looks really chilled.

Yes definitely thanks greenlegs, there's no rush. A lovely surprise that my leg feels like my leg again, after limping around for the last two weeks!
