This cold is really annoying me now.
Last night I had a really bad dry cough (no the wine was not the cause!) as well as the runny nose. Today my abs feel like I spent all day in the gym working on them, my nose is red and sore and the tissues are rapidly going down! Somehow I don't think my planned 13m run will happen tomorrow! I may just go for a long walk instead - dunno see how I feel and how cold it is.
Oh and welcome to blog land to the newest blogger on my list - Fruity Reindeer! Yes another Runners World nutter and FLM05 entry!
My FLM run up includes:
Helsby Half - 23rd Jan
Bramley 20m - 20th Feb
Reading Half - 6th Mar
ETA for Helsby was 2:20 but given the cold I think I will put that back to 2:40 which is still a big PB as mine is 2hrs 59:24 from Reading in 2003 and compared to where I am now Reading is flat! So ETA for Reading is now 2:15-2:20. Bramley is different! I've never run 20m, even when training for Abingdon I didn't do a 20M run and of course Abingdon was 26! So ETA is the cut off of 4hrs!
Goals!
Well seeing as it is that time of year!
Short Term:
Lose 1 stone in weight
Finish FLM ideally in sub 5hrs
Long Term:
Get a GFA time for FLM (that's 3hrs 45 I believe!! eck!)
Lose 2 stone in total
Dreams:
Championship time for FLM (2:45 mara or 1:15 half)
In the mean time my goal is to get over this damn cold!!

According ot what has been said elsewhere the weight loss should help with the times - at least I am hoping so!
Look after yourself and get rid of the snuffles.
