a running joke

Oh and it really was. We've never been running before, but on Saturday we went and bought some (nauseatingly matching) running shoes from John Lewis. And of course, now that we've got the stuff (and I actually have a scarily supportive bra as well) we have to do it.
So yesterday we joined the ranks of those smug people who jog through the park in couples. Although I'll admit we didn't look quite as composed as all the others did... bright red and sweaty has never been a good look, as I gasped my way round the park.
If you're fit, and likely to take the mickey, I'm going to describe what we did as "interval training". If not, I'm going to describe it as "stopping to walk every time we got so knackered that we couldn't continue any longer". I may die doing this... but now i've bought the trainers I am blowed if they will defeat me.
