As an injury-prone runner too I definitely feel your pain about injuries and the grief they cause mentally more than physically! Let’s both hope for a relatively niggle-free year 😀

Thanks Maria, I hope that I manage to achieve at least a couple of my running goals this year. I actually ran with another runner for the first time in years last night. It’s a shame I’m now moving away from Four Oaks. I think joining the local running group in Wallingford and volunteering at parkrun will be a great way of getting to know a few people.

True. I have so much running gear I could wear a different outfit everyday for a month. I don’t need to buy any more. After my Garmin played up again last night I suspect I’ll be treating myself to a replacement this month.

Thanks and good luck with your goals too. I actually ran with someone else for the first time in ages last night. It’s a shame that I found myself a local running buddy a week before I’m due to relocate to a new area.

Thank-you, I need all the luck I can get!
Huge thanks for the fundraising tip. You’ve definitely given me something to think about. I’m not so good at writing poems, but I have just thought of something else I could do.
