A sound mind in a sound body

So, welcome back online.  I am returning with the running blog after a month off.  The blame is to be laid solely on one of the discs in back.  Bloody thing prolapsed.  Still, it's better now, and I am back running.


Well, I say running.  It was more like limping.  It's amazing what a month off of training does to you.  I felt like an asthmatic donkey.  However, one thing did make life more enjoyable for those 45 minutes.  Actually, two things.


My beautiful wife, for Christmas, bought me a pair of Asics Blackhawk running trainers.  My first proper pair of running shoes.  Dear god, it was like running on mini trampolines.  No backache, nothing.  And hopefully they will help me get back on schedule!


And finally, a quick note about this post's title.  Asics stands for "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano", which is latin for 'A sound mind in a sound body'


I am working towards the latter.  Now, about the former.......
