After saying the blogs on my page all seem to have passed away, Brit Girl In USA has reappeared!  And I'm going to steal her idea ( magpie in my former trade) of recalling 'wots occurred'...

So here's a quick recap of the major events and changes in the past 6 months or so, to catch you up......but just headlines and I will follow-up with the back story to many of them over the next few weeks.

• I turned 60 this July..
• We celebrated our 8th wedding Anniversary this August..
• I retired from teaching...
• We visited wells Next To Sea...
• Found out I had Very High Blood Pressure!!

#countdowntocoll...

Another WOW - 3 months since my last post!!

Must keep up to date!!

Right, hows my #getfitordie part 3 campaign going?  Not too bad, weight loss could be better, around 5 lb, (and would be if I kept off the ale 🍻😀)

Haven't done a lot of walking, but I am running, well run, walk, breathe, repeat!!

Saturday around Chesham, yesterday around Bengeo/Stapleford/Waterfod Marshes...aim is for around 6.50/7 min per km...getting there, but I can't yet say I actually enjoy running!!

Anyway, yesterday we had another grand afternoon feast with D & J....diet, what diet!!

Going to call this thread #get fit for me bus pass :))

#getfitformebuspass update!!

So,into week 2 of me new 'regime'... (Target Coll 10km)

So, week 1runs :-

And now into week 2!!

That's an average pace of 12.39 min/mile!! At 6.2 miles that's about 1.25 hours - which gives me a target of getting my min per mile down to around 11.6 min/mile:))

Got me new shoes and phone carrier :))
