A new regime

Thought you might like to hear that the running continues and, following our trip to Sherwood Forest, I've started running through the wood near our house.  It's not very big and there's only one track through it but there's definitely more to look at than running up and down the lane.  The surroundings also take my mind off the fact that the lovely run down the wood is followed by a slightly more strenuous run back up the track.  As in Sherwood Forest for 'up' read 'gentle slope' but when you're still trying to fight your way to some sort of fitness any 'up' feels very steep.  Anyway I have a wedding in 6 weeks time as my goal for looking sleek, slim(ish), fit and suntanned so it's very lucky that not only is Ash leaving all the gardening to me but I've also noticed that, although he thinks he walks miles with the dog every day, the reality is that it's one 20 minute walk in a morning.  Max is a spaniel and needs lots more exercise than that so an hour's walk at the end of every day is now added to my schedule.  I have a feeling that by the end of this summer I will be more tanned, fitter and slimmer than I have been since I was a teenager.  As I keep saying, there is an upside to everything.

Haha! I have SO much more colour since I finished work - love being outside after 10 years in a classroom with the blinds closed!!! Will Ash join you on your hour walk - it'd do him good too!

At the moment Ash thinks that he's walking miles every day so declines to join me for any extra. Also, selfishly, I'm enjoying putting my headphones on and listening to audible books for the hour I'm out so not in too much of a hurry to get him to come too.
