Short run - 20 min

Felt really tired today after yesterday so did a 20 minute run, 2 miles on the roads around St. Ann's Wells Gardens. Good to run on slopes after the flat of the front.

Blue sky - 45 min

Had a great 45 minute run today, out to Hove Lagoon and back. Beautiful day, cold but bright with an amazing blue sky. Loads of people on the front so spent some time weaving in and out of people! Used my new Audiofuel 1 hour mix which was great.

Evening run - 30 min

Another seafront run, loads of runners out today. Felt like a bit of a slog today but kept going.

Seafront run - 30 min

Nice 30 minute run on the on the seafront today to the west, just past the King Alfred swimming pool and back. Short rest and stretch half way.

I'm back! 20 minutes slow

I'm back baby!

FINALLY went running tonight after a break of about a month. Felt the back twinge right at the start but then was fine. Only ran for 20 minutes but need to start off slow. Went along the seafront and it felt great, although it was windy! Warmed up using My Fitness Coach on the Wii for 15 minutes, which is a good way to do it I think. Will keep a close eye on my back and build up slowly.

Long time, no run

Well, first it was the ice, then we moved house and all was chaos, and then it was Christmas, and then I hurt my back (badly, doing hoovering of all things!). I think it's just about getting better now so fingers crossed I will be going for a gentle run on Monday.

Runners World have just sent me an e-mail with a marathon schedule starting next week I must have signed up for ages ago! Right on time. I would have lost my fitness by now so will have to start from scratch...
