Sunday Run Down #7 Why am I doing this????

This week was off, my diet was a shambles, I'm pretty sure I actually ate more chocolate than actual food.  I really need to sort that out this week because although I probably weigh the same, I'm definitely bulging over my jeans more than usual.  My training was, well..... MONDAY I did Yoga with Adrienne…

Sunday Run Down #6 My Longest Run EVER!

Tuesday 60mins…

Ironically, my first week…

Ready, set, GO!
