Day 295 - Running

Back in June I decided to be a bit more proactive with keeping healthy and enlisted the help of a personal trainer at the gym. It's been an amazing 5 months and I feel like a completely different woman. Kate, my trainer, has really motivated me in keeping fit and is brilliant at keeping me accountable by setting me goals. Over the last 4 months I've lost just over 1 1/2 stone and gone down 2 dress sizes but the main thing is I feel brilliant! The other amazing thing about doing all the exercise is months ago you wouldn't have caught me dead on a treadmill and now Kate has got me running for a minimum of 15 minutes every time I train and yesterday we went for a run out and about around the roads near the gym. I have even gone out and bought myself some proper running trainers to give me the support I need. I feel great and am loving it....move over Paula Radcliffe! (ok, I don't think I'll ever do a marathon but it still feels good.)
