    Lime and Soda, I used to drink that when I was on the dole, used to cost 17p :D What beer would you like Buffy? And I dont think it is mad for you to go running, but you should take it easy and it will get easier as you go on and you lose more weight

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
