Getting better

I've been ill for the last couple of weeks so didn't feel like running, but today I woke up feeling full of beans and so I jumped out of bed and went for a 2.1. run, and completed it in 24 minutes, and I still had something left towards the end! I don't know if it was the hour of the day, or whether my body is finally getting used to the idea that it needs get fitter, but today was a good running day.

The plan now is to do at least 2 runs every week during February, and maybe even 3 by the end of Feb.

First run this year!

Oh dear, I have been a bit lazy this year. My first run of the  year was yesterday and I had to run it all by myself. I ran 2.1 miles in an "incredible" 27 minutes with 2 stops along the way! Not so good I am afraid :-(

I don't know if I was running faster than before, as I was absolutely exhausted when I got home, but I need to do it again ASAP in order to build up some stamina, not to mention lose some weight!
