Rain, Rain, Go Away!

The weather here in England is absolutely horrible. It's officially the end of the Summer (not that we've been getting that much of a Summer...) According to the news, we got one month's worth of rain in one day!! I did briefly venture outside yesterday to go to the post office and it wasn't a great experience. I own one of those useless umbrellas which loves to turn inside out when it rains really heavily (I really should invest in a better one...) So needless to say, I wasn't in the mood to go running. I just wanted to relax in the warmth with a lovely cup of hot chocolate...

But today, I feel a little different. Although the weather is still as bad as it was yesterday; I strangely have the urge to go running. The route I've planned today is exactly 4 miles. I'm aiming to run it in around 40 minutes. Ok, I know it's not exactly the most impressive time but it has been a long, long time since I've run more than 3 miles (9 months ago!) I'm not entirely sure why this is, but I definitely want to begin increasing my mileage. 
So yeah, I'll let you know how my run goes this evening.

Hello Again

Wow! It's been a really long time since I posted (literally months.)
This is just a quick post to say that I am still alive and that my running shoes haven't been gathering dust.
There is so much that's been happening in terms of running; I've been to new places, I've taken part in new events and can't wait to share all of what's happened! So look out for my upcoming posts in the next few days.
