Thanks Antonio.

Well done on the half marathon. Hey, that's about my half marathon time too. I think my least slow one was 2:20, so you're just marginally ahead.

Yes, I'm back after a great week in Spain. I'm slowly writing up the holiday entries, and have written a bit more today in the November section. Much more to come, I'm afraid.

I did at least get out for a run this morning, which I didn't say much about in today's new December entry. It was tough but not as bad as I feared it might be.

Good luck with the weight-loss. After a suspension while in Spain (not a good place to be on a diet), I've got my weight-losing head back in place, and will report in a while. Have managed to shed about 5 pounds (just over 2 kilos) this week so far, so am pleased with that. I've been following some of your guidelines, particularly eating a lot of fruit.

Keep in touch.

Cheers

Andy
