New meets Old..

Not my best blip ever today but hey ..

On the 25th March I am running the Sport Relief mile in London with our Scouts -for charity obviously ..
I am not much of a runner really ,more of a walker but I have been doing some training for the event with actual running on Monday evening -I survived !
However this showed that my beloved trainers really weren't upto the job of pavement running ,so I hit the shops today to buy replacements.
These new ones are supposed to fit my kind of foot with a neutral to high arch and they felt pretty good .
Having arrived home my boys persuaded me that I really had to go out and test them fully so off we went for a run .
I amazed myself by completing 3km of running ,with a few short bursts of walking in addition -woo hoo ! the boys were proud of me and I am keen to do it again as long as i don't seize up overnight!
