Setting out

Well, this is it!
I have sommited myself to walking the Race for Life this year and yesterday i picked up a bargainous pair of trainers and today i am going for my first attempt! Apparantly it takes about 5 minutes to drive 5km, according to Google maps but i *think* it might take me just a little bit longer than that to walk it *lol*
I am aiming for an hour tops, but i am bearing in mind i do have the dog who does like to pee at every opportunity and it's wet out and i am breaking in new shoes and yes, i am making excuses for my poor time. I am ever the optimist *lol*
Luckily i am taking the car to the starting point and doing a circular walk so i won't have to worry about carrying lots of stuff with me, it'll be phone and poo bags in my pocket and that's all. I'm stalling!!

Right, off i go, wish me luck! :oD

Thankyou girls :o)
I waited for it to stop raining before i set out, although i probably still would have done it in a light drizzle - i didn't want to put it off any longer or i'd never have done it!!
