Well, Christmas is over and it's time to start hard training again. I've managed to acquire a couple of motivational tools though. The first is a new pair of trainers, and aren't they good! So much better than my old pair. The second is this quite cool ipod chip. It goes in my new trainer and tells me how far I've run and how fast I'm doing it. It even talks to you through the ear phones to keep you updated on your progress!

Just got back from a run in the wind and rain actually. Pretty invigorating actually. Got a long'un tomorrow morning. I shall update you on how that goes.

Ciao for now.
