Had a great run today - picked up the pace and ran 8.1km in 50mins including a 3 min walk break in the middle. Shouldnt be long now till I’m up running an hour, going to do a 50 min run on wednesday and friday and then an hour long run on saturday.
Have postponed giving up smoking till tommorow morning now, to get the monday blues out of the way.
Looking at my Nike+ screen today I remembered I was in a challenge between manchester runners to see who can do the most KMs this year - out of 71 people participating Im 10th! Im really happy to find myself in the top 10! The leader has 997km clocked and I have 503km - there are 2 more people on 516km and 553km in 9th and 8th place - Im going to make it my mission to overtake these by the end of the year.
