Gym again

I walked Harrison to school today - his first day back due to the snow. Officially I've had a day off but did end up doing a bit of work. I spoke to Ms Aspery who phoned from Bondi Beach and reminded me that I didn't walk the whole of Race for Life - I had a Chariots of Fire moment at the end.
My ever so fetching running vest arrived today. It is a lovely Easyjet orange but on the back it says I am an MS Superstar. I've never been an anything superstar before so the colour didn't put me off too much.
I've also been to the gym for the first time in over 3 weeks. In my defence, I haven't been able to get there because of the snow. I came home feeling, in the words on Tony, grrrrreat. I'm not as unfit as I thought, and managed 3kms on the treadmill. Don't put the flags out yet, I walked for 5 minutes then ran for 5 until I'd finished. Feeling energised and not having to dash back to work I decided on a swim as well - half a mile. My pedometer is showing 11213 so far today. I don't really know if that is good or not. I was going to say it is better than normal, but I have been out walking a bit as the car has been snowed in.
Off to do the ironing now. I've promised Paul I won't watch Being Human without him...
