    I was told yesterday I mustnt do ANY running until I've had some heart tests done at the docs :o

    I'm a bit gutted, because I didnt register until I'd spoken to my GP, now I'm being told different :mad:

    All to do with dodgy family history apparently :rolleyes:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    spud - we'll know soon enough what the outcome of this and we have plenty time to get a training plan in place when we know more....

    How's everyone elses training going??

    Snags - i know you have smashed the 10k barrier missus!!! well done!

    I managed 5.5miles on sunday in 1hr 11 mins,which i'm very pelased with, should set me up for a 1hr 20 10k for my first 10k which is in 2 weeks time... i would like to do Leeds in 1hr 15mins if possible, and i'm sure with training it is possible, eh?

    Hopefully will get the 10k/6miles done this coming weekend! then i'll feel a bit better...
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Thanks Maz, but I cant help feeling I'm leaving things a bit late. If all else fails, I'll go back to being a cheerleader, and my entry fee will go to the charity :rolleyes:

    There's always next year !!

    Still sounds like a long way to walk, at my fitness level anyway :eek:

    Never mind, it'll all sort itself out. Maybe I'll try and do a 10k walk locally after me tests next week, see if I can do it.

    I'm def coming though, hotel booked for Saturday and Sunday night. I cant stay Sunday, but Sammy mentioned her girls might want to come, and it was just as cheap for both nights as it was for one :confused:
