As I mentioned in my last post I have dropped 6 kg (12 pounds) in the last 2 months.
For somebody who is already reasonably slim this would be a huge weight loss. For somebody like me, who isn’t, [...]

The Joys of Running
As some of you might already know I have taken up running a while ago (in July, to be precise). My reason for doing that, besides getting fit and being able if necessary to run after a bus without getting totally and embarrassingly out of breath, is mainly to lose weight.
