      One of my 1st DM friends! Finding the balance between competing demands is tricky. I understand that. Thank you for all of your wonderful support here and encouraging me to believe in myself as a runner – you’ll never know how far that message extended for me :). I shall stalk you elsewhere! ;)

    good to go for a little jog after a week off and the rest has done my foot good - its still not 100% but feels much better! :)

      nice one ray, cracking pace there (even if it is a 'little jog' to you, that's a full-on speed workout to me!)

      Sub-sevens is a little jog? In my book, that's more like breaking the sound barrier. Glad your foot is on the mend. Hope you're 100% very soon.

      Nice one Ray, that's a good tip about Clissold Park, I've never run there, but it's easy enough to get to, I'll have to give it a try. :D

      My response to the dailymission about what race would you do if ALL logistics could be ignored was MdS (@Kirsten told me to connect with you). Amazing blog.... alas for me, this is a big big DREAM.... I'll need to spend more time with this blog.
