A long way back?


Last night I went for my first 'run'!
Baby steps and painful!
Went through the first K in 5m36
- I know I shouldn't have had a watch on it but hey I can only get better from that!!

I managed to run a 2.5 approx circuit in 15m35.
I'm 74kg and need to loose maybe 8kg?
April 2008 I was 62kg but have since put on maybe 3kg of muscle - the rest is lard!!
I only hope that running gets easier.

In view of my impending return, I'd sent off to the States (Running Warehouse) for three pairs of shoes plus one pair for the misses!
I couldn't feel the normal benefit/bounce from a brand new pair of shoes as I concentrated 100% on my knees!
Still, no one would have missed me running around North Lakes in my 'Gooner' red
