End of week 2

I have had 2 rest days as the programme said I should. I'm glad it did as I've been a bit busy. I was out of the house at 6.30am on Friday, got home in time to grab a quick bar of chocolate for tea (energy?), then out to the cinema to watch It's Complicated. It was very funny. Yesterday John was 75, so it was a party there in the afternoon. We are having to have afternoon parties now so we can have a nap afterwards, especially if the wine has been opened! There was total garbage on tv last night so I resorted to All Star Mr and Mrs and an early night.

Harrison and I go to the gym on a Sunday morning so I did my bit, which was an increase to 15 minutes, this time doing more running than walking. I did 11 running to 4 walking. I'm already getting a bit scared as in 2 weeks I have to try to do 15 minutes with as much running as I can. I tried the cross-trainer after that but didn't feel like it was as good as the bike.

I've also had to make an impromptu visit to Halfords. I was leaning over in the car and caught the rear view mirror, and it came off. It was surprising how fast I got used to using the side mirrors, and I think I might trust Paul more with his now (his van has no back window so therefore no mirror). Halfords had 'rear view mirror bonder' which amazed me. It meant that I didn't have to feel too bad as other people must do the smae regularly, and I didn't have to resort to double sided sticky tape.

This week looks like I have done loads less, but I have done what I'm supposed to, to the letter. The run is 16 weeks today and I can already run for half a km! Only 9 1/2 to go....

Week 2:
Run/walk 4.2kms (35 minutes)
Cycle: 14.7kms (40 mins)
Cross trainer: 15 minutes, and I think it was faulty as it said less than a km.
Swimming: Nil
