I went for two runs this week. The first was after school. I wasn't really in the mood but my little dog looked at me with her big brown eyes that said, "you need to take me for a run!", so I put on my shoes and headed out of the door. It only took a couple of minutes and I was in the zone. We just had a short(ish) run because it was quite late really, but it was a good one.
Earlier in the week I had been reading my Runner's World magazine and there was an article about a guy running up a hill, just to make sure he still could. With this in mind, I made myself plod up the hill and was very satisfied that I can now consistently conquer this final challenge of my runs.
The second run was with my awesome kids. We did the 12 minute run to check our fitness progress and I found that I have improved by 1 and a quarter laps! Yayyyyyy.
