Running on the dock!

Well, I am pretty sure many of you will be quite surprised but I have started running several times a week now. I don't mind telling you that muscles I didn't even know I had are hurting, but my word it's pretty satisfying!
Days as I am sure you can imagine can be quite intense, and getting some time out to go and pound my frustration out on the dock is a lifesaver!
Normally I try to go in early evening or when it's dark, but that dock has heard many a thought about my day, and been subjected to many a cry out to God. It's quite freeing to be alone with my thoughts and God, and I certainly need it.
The dock from the end to the main gate by the road and back is a mile apparently. I am managing to run between 2 and 5 of those depending on the day, amidst a bit of walking. Also gives me time to discover songs I don't even know I have on my MP3 player!! Thanks to Emma for many of those!!
Hopefully I'll be bringing this habit home with me...watch out the streets of Brum, my orange t shirt will be coming!!
