I'm going to try and post fairly regular updates on my progress getting ready for the Great South Run. There might not always be much to say, but I think it's all part of getting ready.
I managed to get out for a bit nearly every other day (despite locking myself out for one of my planned run days!) I know it's probably early days, but I can't help feeling a bit disappointed it doesn't feel at all like it's getting easier. I just need to give it time. It didn't help that tonight there was a running club coming in the opposite direction that made me feel extremely ungainly. Best not to get caught up in what I look like puffing along the road though.
So this week I have still managed not to buy any new shoes. My brother is advising me I should get it sorted as it makes a big difference. Next week might be the one, although being away at the weekend may hamper those plans.
