Well having missed two Marathon starts and picked up another achilles injury I did just 7 miles last month before having to stop. Well today I've started again ....... just a short slow jog on the flat, and this pm I've joined a gym as I've put on over 14lbs!
So more fat, less fit but still ..........

Er....hello..... didn't we run together today? I did 5 miles along a very hilly coastal path!
But it was *very* nice to run with you again |

cycled to and from the gym, 2.5km on the treadie, 6 lengths of breaststroke and a sauna - very nice 
Weigh in day tomorrow before I start my loose weight big time plan.
Update - starting weight 15st 13.4 lbs - so a smidge under 18lbs heavier than April.

I am still here - lots of cycling, an hours yoga, more swimming - 8 whole lengths in 11 mins, and another short treadie run. My achilles aches a little most days but icing 3 times a day keeps it at bay
Weight isn't going so good though!

sounds busy mate and good on ya, i for one could do what you've been doing as I'm a little lazy with non running stuff
I joined the sun diet squad and may be a bad move as I'm storming in front of my challengings this week BUT I love the menus they throw up and great ideas for my slow cooker, steamer and convector oven
well done mate good on ya I may need to look at different non running activities, altho my Jen is concerned I've dropped from 14st 10lbs to 13st 5lbs in less than a week BUT I'm eating proper and running better
