OMG! I ran 20 minutes non-stop this morning and DIDN'T collapse...!!! I then did some other stuff, but that's what sticks out in my memory! The look on his face too, haha!! When I got to 10 minutes, I said I'd be able to carry on 5 more minutes. Then I got to 15 and didn't stop, so he suggested 2 more minutes and I said sure; got to 17 minutes and he said how about another 2 and I said sure. Got to 19 and said, well I might as well go to 20, which I did but I'm not sure I could've carried on much longer. So now I have a new a target set: By next Wednesday, be able to run 25 minutes non-stop...sure, I can do that...
I am still suspicious about him being Welsh, even though he said today that he is...actually, I had one of my 'moments' where, looking back, I wonder why people are even civil to me...but it's not too bad, I just swiftly moved the conversation onto rugby...he'll be wearing a red shirt on February 4th (translation: he supports Wales). But he claims to be neutral in the name of sport...I seriously don't get this guy! Decided to try and get some nationalism out of him by telling him about Poland vs Wales and Dan's threat of holding me down in the pub if Poland scored...he asked why and I told him I'm half Polish. He smiles and asks if there's anything else I'm hiding about myself. Now it's my turn to smile and mutter "you have no idea!"
And, in other news, my bank can go to hell...when I get this mess sorted with NatWest I am closing all my accounts with them and using my new Barclays one only. Oh, and got rejection letter from Hobbs...
