Training Day One

Yes today was the day that I took to the tarmac of Southoe, with trainers and scraped back hair and tracky bottoms to begin the first day of my next 7 months, training for the 5K all women's race for MS.

OMG was it hard or what. The running and walking bit was OK but Jesus i was so out of breath, my breathing was terrible and my chest felt so tight. I thought this was supposed to be good for me!!

Not just that but £200 later a healthy food bill from Tescos was paid, mmm this healthy lifestyle is not good for my bank balance nor my heart!

Today's stats are as follows (training program by Race for Life):

1 minute run, 1 minute walk x 10 - achieved

My legs are like jelly now, but I feel good for even starting, so to celebrate I am of to the Stevenage Stamp show tomorrow to spend some cash on stash, hehehe.

Pencil Lines new sketch goes up tomorrow and today is the last day to send in you February LOs for the readers gallery and to be in for a chance to win a 12month subscription to Scrapbook Inspirations and a chance to be published.

Tomorrow is also the last day of the sale at Bumblebee Crafts and the doors will close at midnight along with the Lounge forum. It is sad but a decision that has had to be made. Scrapping Angels will take over with a new look from next weekend, so I am very excited.

I am off to catch up on some sleep and rise nice and early for my trip to Stevenage, but before I go, please pop on over to Annies blog, boy am I proud *inserts cheesey smile*

Hugs
