How long are the running sections on week for? Go you can't wait to get back to it! Never thought I would say that! Lol miss my jogging!! I like you always do a few exercises before I get on, few sit ups and leg exercises to get ready but I have bad knees so have no choice!

Been off work today, annual leave to catch up on some jobs whilst i've had a busy weekend...been cleaning the house, took the dogs out, been shopping, done my c25k and now chilling before mummy comes to my house for lunch She only lives 9 houses down from me but i still miss her being around all the time/doing everything for me..

Gonna have jacket potato with cottage cheese & salad for lunch, then making a spag bol for the boy later on
