Superwoman in 10 days....?

It has been a while but lots has happened...

First and for all, the number of VRB's (Virtual Running Buddies) is growing. Due to the fantastic results (hmmmm....yeah I am sceptical still) I have received requests to be added to this unique "inner circle" club, so the group is growing ;-)

I ran 8k - for the first time ever in just about an hour's time last Sunday! I have to admit it was under the due care of my brother who ran with me, while I was visiting the Netherlands to celebrate my gran's birthday. That probably did the trick as I was way too stubborn to give in after half an hour and just kept running..." I can do this!" I kept telling myself. My brother has been running for years and his breathing didn't even change, I mean! He normally runs this in just over 30 minutes (hahaha, yeah! for real!) but I kept him on the road a little longer on Sunday with my "average" pace.

"Superwoman" in 10 days has to do with my trip to Spain - I am heading off tomorrow to two good friends. They live in Marbella and have offered me to stay at theirs to "spruce" up my running. Although, I have to admit the language he uses in emails has started to scare me a little bit. He is talking about, just some fragments: "Real Conditioning, AM and PM running, I train really gentle, you just tell me when you feel like throwing up". And especially this freaked me out: "Of course we have wireless internet, but I don't think you will have the energy for that". I just got the last email and in there the sentence "There have been made many plans for and with you when you get here ...oh oh oh!" doesn't sound like I will be doing a lot of chillin' ;-).

I expect to return to the UK with and in a very fit body!

I will have internet access so I will use this blog to update you on my progress of becoming "Superwoman" in 10 days! Please think of me while I am away, I probably need all support I can get ;) while soaking up the sun in lovely Marbella.

Take care
