Hi All
Been out for walk with dad today on a lovely sunny day to get eggs from the garage.
En toute i encountered two steepish small hills and i found a way of tackling them....With walking stick in right hand i grabbed hold of wall and levered myself up quicker that way.....Dad commented i was going quicker than him?? Then met another one on way back and again took a deep breath and levered myself up with bannister and walking stick, nearly losing grip og bannister but made it still the same!!
I think Roadrunner is still safe...MEEK, MEEK!!!!But hey ive found a way of getting there quicker.....
Lol

Hi Julie
Well yes did quite well for me although at one point dad asked how long before i was going to tackle one of the hills, were we going to be there still at 6 tonight?
Diets going well, i dont weigh myself, will find out again when go see dietitan....Plus our scales arent very accurate...But when i lose more will tell folk on here....

I can just imagine you running up that hill singing like Kate Bush :shock: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wp43OdtAAkM
And the lyrics are:
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
You, It's you and me.
And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.
Say, If I only could, oh...
Well done - it's great to hear you sounding so positive.Love, Legs x

When I saw the title Kate Bush sprang to mind!! :eek:
Must admit if Kate was at the top of the hill I wouldn't need a walking stick to get to the top''Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy''. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)0 -

Hi Barbara
Ha..Well I suppose its not quite a run but for me it is...Its kind of a really quick hop skip n jump!!!! I just aim to get there as quick as I can and I psyche myself up for it...Made a mad dash too back home for last five mins to work up a sweat, wanted water!!!
I guess the muscles will make an appearance hopefully........I hurt today!!
Aw...thanks for mothering me...I will be fine though, got me shadow with me...LOL!!! (He's getting a tooth out tomorrow and he hates dentists)...
