Day four

Feeling inspired today, treadmill has been ordered and will arrive on Monday (worked out much cheaper than gym membership and means that the other half won't worry about me going out jogging on my own) and have submitted my name for the 2011 Great North Run ballot - is it wrong that part of me is hoping that I don't get a place?! One mile today but planning on kicking it up a notch this weekend - want to be comfortable with three miles by mid Feb.

  1. Well done for getting out again. A treadmill at home - I can't decide if I like that I idea or not! You're right, it's a good alternative to running alone in the dark though.

  2. I love the outdoors but can understand reasons for getting one if we get any more icy weather I will wish I had one.

  3. I wasn't sure if it was a good idea to be honest but if I fork out the cash it will encourage me to use it, plus there isn't the same need to get kit together to go out or head to the gym - it means I have no excuse to get out of running!!

  4. Am loving the idea of running in my PJs and slippers rather than donning the usual kit for the gym.
    Hope your bruises are a little less purple!

  5. Buying a treadmill rather than paying out for gym membership is a good idea... and the bonus is I could watch Eastenders, and other similar trash, whilst on it! Of course, I don't think my other half would agree, as we'd have to replace the sofas with it to fit it in the house!! :-)
