Back to running

Following Liz’s advice, I was browsing around this site and came across the page From Couch Potato to Distance Runner. Interestingly, he seems to think that running every day is just fine, as long as you don’t feel tired.
Hurm.
In other news, there was a piece in this week’s Sunday Times magazine about Karima Adebibe, the new Lara Croft. It had a picture.
I was reading it while having a cup of tea for breakfast and my dad wanders past and does a double take.
“Oh!” he says. “I thought that was you!”
It must be a fatherly thing. You know, the paternal equivalent of beer goggles or rose-tinted spectacles.
The article was quite funny. This bit made me laugh out loud:
She just embodies everything about a 21st-century girl that I like: she’s smart, independent, tough, polished, attractive and very sexy. I love the fact she’s got curves and the assets of a real woman. It’s a welcome contrast to the modelling industry’s obsession with being skinny.
Dahling, really. Lara’s ‘assets’ are nothing like those of a real woman. A silicone-enhanced one, perhaps. And with legs like those you’re not in a position to complain about the modelling industry’s obsession with being skinny. Especially as you are a model.
