Day 229/365

This morning when I got up I thought I would be throwing the towel in today, but as the day progressed and rattling with ibuprofen my back eased. I could just go out and walk the minimum 1 mile which would keep me in the challenge but I set myself the target to run a minimum 5k and if I dont fo that it would feel like defeat and after all the hours and effort thst has gone into this challenge thus far I dont want to be defeated. So my back had eased enough to try some easy running, I drove to Downside School where Stratton were busy playing cricket on a Sunday afternoon and ran 7 1/2 times around the adjacent playing field. The grass is cut perfectly short and the field nice and flat much less impact on my back. Minimum 5k done, still hanging in there.
