I just want to say a very big thankyou to all those who got me through my bad patch last week Thanks V-rep for encouraging me to go out running on Thursday night. It turned out to be the best run i had ever had, even my foot which i have have had problems with for about 3 weeks didn't give me any probs.
I went out with a group most of them a lost faster tham me,we all got lost and i got left behind, way behind. It turned out that i did most of the run on my own but because i was playing catch up i ran faster and further than i had ever ran. Only about 70mins but that is far for me. and i didn't feel any pain in my thighs, tired legs but not painfull legs.
today i was determind to go further than that so i could build up to my half marathon. got lost again this timei was on my own. Had a great time really enjoyed myself. Was able to get a lot of thing sorted out in my head.
I ended up running for 100mins. I know you shouldn't build up distance that fasr but i got lost and wanted to get home as soon as pos.
I now know that i can do this thank to you lost and your support.
My legs ach so much but that will pass.
I can do this. I can do this.
THANK YOU
JEN.

(I have to ask though - why jelly bean?!!)Simon
Nice one Jelly Bean, keep up the good work
Now - this is not a kick up the bum and I'm talking to myself as much as to you - don't forget that the training effect takes place on REST days!
You're well on track for a good half-marathon now.
Cheers, V-rap.
I am a bit stif today and my foot is giving me a bit of jip. Nothing that a good days rest want cure. Will do a short/fast run tomorrow and hopfully will not get lost this time! I'm glad i did it though i proved to myself that it can be done.
Wht Jelly Bean, well jelly is fat and wobbly and about 18 months ago i was very fat and i wabbled in all the wrong places and now all my friends think i lok like a beanpole (i don't realy) hence jelly bean.
cant stand them myself to sweet.
see you later,
Jen
