So I mentioned to some colleagues that I had taken up jogging, and was surprised at how helpful they were.
I expressed my doubts at actually being able to run 5km after 9 weeks and was met with " what's with you being negative?"
Turns out there's a common held- and apparently proven - belief that once you get past the 6 week mark, you'll be amazed at what you can do. For some reason our bodies (and I'm guessing, our minds) like to make the first 6 weeks difficult before letting adrenaline and previously unrecognised athletic ability go free and you start to think you're the next Ussain Bolt.
I've only got 5 weeks to go til that hits: just in time for Olympic qualifying??

Keep at it! Seriously. After a month of not drinking, my drinking habits have completely changed. Aaron's like... what are we taking to drink at this BBQ tonight? And I'm like I dunno, I'll grab a bottle of coke. He just looked at me.
