Marathon Man

The only resemblence to the title and today's jogging session would be if I had toothache.

Still, 15 minutes of running at 10 kmph in 3 by 5 minute stints was pretty spectacular for me. I've never, ever run before. Not even at school. Perhaps it was the new outfit I was wearing that spurned me on? More likely it was the £155 price tag that I didn't want to regret. But it felt good! The shoes are sloped downward towards the front, which has the effect of enticing you to go faster.

I even managed a spinning class later the same day, so double points for me.

Current weight is 17 stones and 7 pounds (245 pounds / 111.1 kg).

Noteworthy landmark: I've now lost 4 stones in total, nearly a stone per month.
