Last couple of weeks have given me heaps of confidence so thanks for all your help.<BR/><BR/>I might even try to stick with you as long as possible - you never know!Biscuitmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10366925761995894820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1382714127608723752.post-42916734040506735442009-03-16T17:12:00.000+09:002009-03-16T17:12:00.000+09:00I think you're starting to get why we try to get t...I think you're starting to get why we try to get to the hills every Saturday - it's a magnificent place to run even if it does mean an early start ; get used to the runny nose though, it's a bit colder up there and it's an inevitable side effect. I'm stoked that you've adjusted so well to the trail running - it doesn't take too long if you're fit and it really makes a difference to your overall leg strength, not only because of the hills but also the slightly uneven surface. Looking forward to the HM!DC64https://www.blogger.com/profile/03101905855678916033noreply@blogger.com
