Rule 1 - Once in, don't move!!

Another 3 training miles done this morning and I'd like to say it's getting easier...I'd like to a but I can't quite yet!!

I nearly didn't make it today...got 3/4 of the way through the route and got to the "Belly Buster Cafe" with a sign outside saying 2 sausage, 2 bacon, 2 eggs, beans, tomatos, fried bread and tea....and it smelt wicked...it's the closest I've come to quitting!! lol But I thought "no, I've got a freezing cold bath and a lovely bowl of muesli to look forward to when I get home"!!! I made it round without stopping today, again just over the half hour mark.

I ran my bath before I left and when I got back, did my stretches and climbed in...OH MY GOD!!! Once I was over the initial cold shock, I sat there as the freezing water cooled my aching legs and I started to get comfy - then I made a fatal mistake...I moved!! The freezing water splashed up my back and took my breath away...I had to go through the initial cold shock again!! Rule 1 - Once in, don't move!!

Just a note for anyone who wants to donate...just click on the "sponsor me" button just to the right of and above this paragraph...it's really easy to do and even a small donation would make a difference to everyone at the MS Society so come on, don't be shy :)
