Back on the road

Three days after my run, and on go the trainers ("is that Brit for running shoes?" enquired my American friend). Just a mile down to Morton Hall, pause to stretch, and a mile back, after a brief warm-up walk in the opposite direction to the post box in the village; but the mile was nearer to 9-10 minutes than the 11 it was a few days ago, and the nearly 13 minutes average over the course of the Race for Life - so I was pleased.

Sponsorship has increased further, and is creeping closer to the amazing £1,000 mark - many, many thanks again to all my lovely friends, colleagues and relations. Best of all, this morning's weight was, finally, 149 lb. So (despite everything my friends will tell you) I am officially normal!
