It's hard work but i'm getting there. Three and a half miles twice a week at the moment, hoping to be up to 4 1/2 by the end of the month. The weather is not helping as its still like the middle of winter here. 

I've decided I need a new pair of running trainers. Mine are now 5 years old and begining to look and feel a bit bedragled. I have become quite attached to them and am dreading having to break in a new pair. The end of April if I have met my targets, then a new pair of decent trainers will be bought.
