Be able to run 10 miles (read all 2 entries…)
Right. 8 months ago

After a spell out of running due to injury, I’m going back to this. Trying to get some miles in during the weeks then do a long run at the weekend. Did 8 miles last weekend, though the last half mile hurt a bit :)

Aim: to be able to run 10 miles comfortably by about June. That will be good prep for running the half marathon in September.

Spike is going strong. 10 months ago

Spike currently appears to be a healthy cactus. Clearly cacti are the correct kind of plant to grow in this flat.

Hooray, Spike is still alive. 10 months ago

Despite my having been away for a couple of weeks over Christmas, Spike the cactus still appears to be going strong. He shows no signs of flowering, but no signs of dying either. I count this as a success so far in my new plant-keeping venture.
