70 days until we leave!

Well now it gets going! 10km on Sun and next Sunday and 3, 4 and 5 during the week. They say this is a system to build up muscle for the run, but it is making my feet hurt and yes I have good shoes! I will have to tough it out since there is no going back! I had an hour foot rub, from Ernie, but done by Megan! Wow that girl missed her calling, she could charge lots of money for her foot rubs! I will walk at lunch today as we are going to Melville for the guys to go to a hockey game and the women to visit Karen! So supper out tonight, will have steak and salad! Can't wait to hear how Karen's trip was, Margo and Don are not recommending their location as a place to go so maybe Karen's trip was better.
Just made arrangements to walk today with Megan so that is done, it's good to have so many people eager to walk, I never have to walk alone! Ernie will have to make it up later since we leave right after work today.

Say Hi to Karen and Lawrence for me!!
Well done you, have you got the right type of shoe though?

Wow how are you going to cope with just 70 night's sleep!!

Just 70!!!!! that huge number is killing me. Well that and the training!! I have had my feet tested at the running store and bought the shoes that were recommended. They feel great on and took no time to break in and I do mean NO TIME, but sometimes my feet hurt, I kind of think its arthritis...which makes it harder to run but more meaningful! Talk to you tomorrow.
