    That's awesome! Isn't it great not having all that extra weight to push around?

    The colour run looks amazing - we don't have anything like that in the UK - and that is fantastic progress for you - I was just reflecting how I used to walk the dog and have to sit half way round what I thought was a "big" walk - which is now the short walk so yes I know what you mean by not being able to walk far :)

    and yup doggiesnot it feels like I have shoved off a freeloader I was dragging about with me haha

    So very exciting!! I am happy for you. What an achievement :) I was supposed to run my first 5k last weekend but I did something to my neck in the gym doing crazy classes LOL but I had fun doing them but will be running one ASAP. Keep up the great work....

    how frustrating for you - but at least you will be more than ready for the next one :)

    Thanks again for the kind remarks :)

    Thats awesome, especially as I know you've had so many issues with ur knees. It's all starting to come together nicely :) I'm so happy for you! x

    yes my knees are actually behaving themselves - I think it must be the extra weight loss that's helping and maybe my current workout routine that's getting me more flexible - dunno lol - but shows what sticking at it can do eh? - :)
