The start of week nine and I can safely say I am now officially a running obsessed mad woman!
Yesterday I ran 5 miles and loved it! What I love even more is that today i'm not half as sore as I expected. Today is a rest day though but it's giving me time to sort out the training plan for my latest challenge - a half marathon!
I have been doing a lot of reading lately and it seems to me that it would be downright foolish to train for a full marathon without having attempted a half marathon. So from the 1st of July I will begin 12 weeks of training for the 13.1 mile race. It's also a good opportunity to train for, and participate in, a serious race which will be great experience to prepare me for the full marathon next year.
I will be running it for Kent Association for the Blind and have set up a fundraising page, which I will no doubt be shamelessly promoting nearer to the time, here:

I have lots to do so i'd better go and it's Monday, so you know what time it is......
