Ouch

Well yesterday's massage was an errr experience shall we say!! I'm back on Tuesday too!

Today my back feels tender, especially in the center at the base where she said the muscles were most tight. Almost feel bruised!!

Trying hard to sit up properly too but that's tiring so my core must be shot!

One thing she did say is try to do the exercises that the physio gave me too as he said my right hip was weak and it was the right lumbar area that had the muscle spasm. Oh and it will take 3-6mths of exercises to get the body to "fix" as such whereas I only really did my exercises for about 6wks max!! So back to laying on the floor in front of the TV and looking a pratt!!

Tomorrow we have the new washing machine and tumble dryer arriving which means I can start to work on the tonne of washing I have waiting for me since the current one went wrong! Oh what an exciting weekend I have!

Somewhere along the line I need to try and get some running in too!

this has higlighted my failures!! See even with my chair raised I flop on the keyboard making my shoulders tense and sitting up straight tired me out!

just recieved this by mail from a fellow blogger. I want to share it so everyone can benefit as I have. I've wiped my tears away and I've printed this up so when I am getting sulky and down I will read this and remember .... Aim High! (how appropriate is that name!) Don't EVER think that you any any less of a runner than anyone else Kim, You show a dedication and determination that puts many people to shame. You have a goal for your marathon time which is truly amazing - and I am inspired by it..We all have our dream peaks (sorry about the mountain reference again - I'm a mountaineer too!) - and they are a reflection of who we are and what we are able to acheive - for ourselves - and anyone who can't see the value of that endeavour is blind indeed.When you run your next pb - to me that is as phenomenal an achievement as any world record..and I will bounce up and down like a mad thing at the thought of it - and I get pretty animated when I'm excited about somethi...

To Swim or Not To Swim

That's my pondering today! Yesterday I had a bit of a headache and today I woke with the stick slightly sore "cold" like throat. Then when I was at work I felt that coldy icky yucky feeling. I've eaten now and feel better in that the icky feeling has gone but still got the head and the throat. Swimming stuff is in the car as I was planning a 40 mins pool jogging session. Now I don't know. Will see how I feel later on. I want to swim but then I also don't want to make any lurgy that I may be harbouring any worse! We'll see! So did you guess??? Yes of course I went! Well it was just me head and if I was running outside I would have run! Anyway 55mins of which 40 was pool running and then several good lengths of swimming which is starting to feel good and fitness for swimming is improving too! Now I have a stinking headache and can confirm my throat feels like crap! That may have been my last exercise for a few days :-( Other news .. I wasn't going to say...

"It depends what you want to do with your life"

Quote by Coach Spans yesterday when I bounced up to her asking permission to enter FLM07! Yesterday ... I felt the electricity from the event and the runners, and I wanted to be there in the heart of the action. I saw the fast ladies with total awe and wanted to be them, so slender and toned and fit and fast. I saw the elites who had "Had accidences" and thought how sad to be so fixed on a goal to do that and carry on regardless. Then I could see (and feel) the pain and suffering from the slower runners, leaning against rails stretching and trying to take drugs. I saw huge smiles and tears and pride. Then part of me said BOLLOX I am entering next year regardless whilst part of me said that I still wanted to be with the faster people whilst recognising that they looked alone and that they were running alone That is a huge question ... I want the happiness of achieving my goal whilst wanting to do FLM or another marafun again ASAP yet I know that marafun training at my current ...
