Big Milestone

Today saw Mags and I achieve a big milestone in our training - 10 miles this morning in 2 hrs 38 minutes. We are both so pleased with this and has definitely given us both a boost! It was actually a miracle as it was achieved after only about 5 hours sleep, I was out at Annadale's 40th Anniversary Dinner and Mags was babysitting for us and with the clocks going forward, it led to an early start. Andy had a U18 session today so we started walking at 8.45 - definitely a new way to spending Sunday mornings! Though I have to admit that, much as I was not looking forward to it, it was such a beautiful morning that even I couldn't stay grumpy for too long! It was cold but the sun was shining - recommend it to anyone!

We've also reached our fundraising target with the total currently standing at £1,082 which is fantastic, we're both over the moon with this and are so grateful for everyone's kind donations!

Luckily for Mags, she's heading with Dad to Paris next weekend where Dad's (hopefully) doing the Paris marathon. I say hopefully as he's currently struggling with a back injury but fingers crossed all the physio treatments will pay off. So it means that Mags is having a change of scenery for her walking as she's planning to pack her trainers and tread the pavements..........though need to remind her that shopping doesn't count!

Anyway, off to my pit now to rest my weary limbs!
