End of Week One!

Well, the first week is over, and so far I haven't died! That's a good start, if I say so myself. What has really pleased me so far is no shin splints, which have been a big issue in the past.

I am really surprised and encouraged by how many people are cheering me on. This is what I needed, and undoubtedly will need if I am to succeed. So, keep asking, keep bugging, and like I said before, keep me honest.

I'm pleased to say that there are a few others who are interested in joining in -- big sis Ruth, John S -- the more the merrier, I say. Of course, it will be a while still before I will be able to show my face in a group for training. I need to get through that embarrassing (wheeze, cough, wow that's a new place for a cramp) phase.

The weather is changing, so I'll have to start thinking about running in the rain soon (ie, tonight).

One last thing, Monty is really happy, and seems to be getting over the fact I'm running! Seriously! The first night out the look in his face was one of stunned confusion. AHHH, to be interesting to the dog.

TTFN - off to put on my trainers, as the English would say.
