    Away on a walking holiday at the moment, doing some lovely hills in Saxon Switzerland, Germany. Absolutely beautiful scenery, but very hot and humid! Adding to my mileage is tough!

    Guess I won't hit my target, but it's been a very successful month of cross training - instead of JUST running, which is what I've been doing for the past couple of years without really gaining strength or losing weight.

    Thank you for the challenge though! I'll be back again in August with a goal of surpassing July!

    Added 2.5 of intervals/speedwork with my little girl today. FUN! :-)

    OMG I feel amazing I just did my first 5km ever I never thought I could do it and I did it not only 3 weeks into starting running but 13 weeks and 5 days since my surgery where I had my large bowel removed I even passed one of my old hospitals and there have been times when I could barely walk thro the door and now here I am running past f**k u crohns disease and the weird thing I seemed to only feel stronger the further I went I kept a steady and slow pace and I just felt more pride and excitement the further I went I will go back to 1mile tomorrow as I will probably pay for this tomorrow
    and the second thing I am really slow it takes me 30mins to do my usual 2miles and yet today it took me 46mins to do the 3.1 im so proud of that time

    gonna take me a long while to come down off this high
