    Hi Linda,

    Yeah I didnt really feel too bad (I walked 3-4 miles home on the day due to detours and kept moving for most of the night) - the only problems I'm having are a mole that got chaffed that I've had to plaster down as it keeps bleeding on my shorts out here and sore top of thighs - so down stairs is funny - but they got worse from the flight so would be fine if I was at home ;)

    Its supposed to rain tomorrow if thats any better - its actually too hot to be out now so my friend is napping and I'm on here ;)

    Yeah but you're running Linda, I'm just walking with a bit of running :o
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
    Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

    I hope to be running with a bit of intermittent walking but we'll see how it goes

    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.

    Hi Sammy - no no pics - I saw OH, friends and Parents but not one got any pics till I was in the pub with bubbles in hand ;)

    However, when I get back there will be official photos (they go to my works email address) so thats cool :D

    I cant remember Sammy - either about mile 6 or mile 17 - I would reckon from the railings and I doubt its mile 6 because I had a huge stitch then ;)
