    I hav'nt posted in a while but I am still running!Started running over two years ago and did last yrs mini marathon in 68 mins and this yrs in 66 mins.Have also done a number of 5k races in between.I have always broken 30 mins in those races with a pb in the last one of 27 minsI see in a previous post I said my aim was never to come last - well I did come last in a 5k!There were about 50 in it mainly men!I suppose somebody has to come last!!Anyway I'm afraid the training has gone a bit by the wayside these last few months(and weight has gone up a bit) but I'm all motivated again - roll on the Raheny 5k!

    :D Wow, I'm very very impressed! That sounds like alot of good work. I haven't done nearly as much this week - hope it all pays off in the race. I'll probably see you come whizzing past with your new svelte figure and all!
