Ok so i'm not a regular blogger, I just don't have the time or the stamina of amazing bloggers like Katie, but she always brightens my day & her blog makes me smile - even all the way across the pond here in England.

Maybe by doing it on the treadmill first proves to me i can do it and then i should go out and do it outdoors.5km is still only 3.1miles though.lots of new runners at the gym club Jennyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02924464954110007674noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34955030.post-40467276851870482432010-06-05T22:26:00.002+01:002010-06-05T22:31:07.069+01:00Knees & HipsNo running since running club on tuesday.

I'm signed up. It's official. All i need to do now is be able to run 26.2 miles. despite being able to do 2 hours of vigorous exercise classes constantly, running is completely different.Currently i can run about 1 mile in one go - and when i say run - i mean jog!!

When you hear the call "Jennifer! come quick!", and you know someone is using a paintbrush & holding a paintpot, you tend to respond pretty promptly.
