    Glad you had a good holiday - you were probably very wise not to run in the heat,stupidly I thought that running in Egypt was a good idea - until I passed out with heat stroke !!!!:eek:

    Forgot to say, after the cinema tonight I was walking past a running shop (run-4-it) and seen a sign in the window advertising a free running group (the word beginners was mentioned in there). Do you think I'd be too unfit to join? :o I have emailed for more information... :eek:
