day 8

Well, I am currently on the sofa, decreasing in purpleness... ouch!

Just did the longest run yet, not very fast but going for distance and stamina today (trying to sound like I know what I'm on about!). I've not run that far since I did the Great North run in 1998! I swore then I would never take up running again as my knees didn't work properly for three days after the race. Here's the details although it really isn't that impressive. http://www.runningfreeonline.com/act/450064  I've worked out what I'm comfortable with now and also that somedays are gonna be easier than others. I didn't stop at all today, last weekend I was walking for 30 seconds about 2/3rds of the way round.

It was much nicer running in the daylight, just started to spit with rain as I came back down my road too.. good timing. Running past some shoppers as I ran into town towards the park, they all looked at me as if I were some kind of alien life form.. This is Somerset, they like cider, and cream cakes!

Right off for a shower then into town to do a spot of shoppin myself, except I'm after big stuff so have to take the car!
