Baby steps....again - Week 1

and again...and again

I'm still blotchy all over but I no longer scare small children if I go out in public.

I've re-started a 'training program' to run 5k by mid-May.
Today was my third 'run' and I ran 1.5k/walked 1.5k.

Confession?
I'm disheartened and desperately homesick. A couple of weeks ago I went 'home' to Mooloolaba to watch C2 do the swim leg of the Mooba tri. For those that don't know, I'm an ex-Sunshine Coast girl and all my best memories are of running/sailing/whatever along that stretch of coast. My best friend/ex-running partner joined me to watch the tri at the spot where we did most of our running, so it was doubly disheartening.

Blah! I'm feeling sorry for myself. Give me a kick up the arse someone????

Good on you for getting 'back on the bike' and getting into it, I can't think of anyone else who'd have the courage and conviction to do what you do. You really are such an inspiration to all of us.

So there's no arse kicking from me either mate. However you better watch out when I see you, I have so many hugs to pass on from your CR friends that anyone looking on will probably get the wrong idea.

Nah, sorry Cirque.

Getting disheartened in your position is totally justified. The fact that you have started a training program is great.

Cheers,
Ben

Not a great believer in kicks...but I do believe in hugs ((((((((((Cirque)))))))))))

Looking forward to walking/ running/ skipping/ crawling/ laughing/ scrambling our way around at Warwick.

Aawwh, well done for getting back in to it, plenty of people would have packed up and gone home by now.

No kicks - only ((((((JOC)))))))

Can't wait to see you & give you a real (((((JOC)))) rather than a virtual one :-)

Just checking again, Cirque! Is the chin up again?
As for scaring people...I'll soon have to wear a veil!
