Hmmm now what ...

had today off work too, slept again this morning and coughed.

now I feel good, still got the old cough but fine. Except it is now 11.30PM and I ain't tired!

I've hovered the house, done washing and ironing and tided a bit too. Just not tired! Possibly something to do with the hours and hours of sleep I've had these last 48 hours! So now what!

Well I've played Galacta on the PC (Old DOS based game but fun!) and I've looked at my new Access Training database. I've updated the calender on the wall for 2005 to include race dates and club nights up to FLM and all the 2005 school dates. I've even started the course work from the Fit2Run course I'm doing and that only arrived today!

So what next! It's too late to call anyone, can't start a book as I know I have 2 Sports Nutrician books for Christmas and want to read those straight away. Nothing on TV, no films to watch ... arrrggghhh it's driving me mad! For the last 5 years I've had stuff to do with college work and spent most evenings chatting on the RW forum avoiding work and now I don't have any I would love some to do!! Insain isn't it!

Suppose I could clean the sinks or wash the floors but the sinks were done 2 days ago and the floor has been hovered this evening. Can't play a proper PC game as the speakers aren't working (lost a cable in the move!) The RW forum is dead - everyone is out having fun I guess, and I am not that sad that I will go to Tesco at this time of night!! I could read my access book I suppose then work on my training DB some more ... or sort out the mountains of magazines I have lying about. Yep that's what I'll do - fill up the recycling bin with old magazines!! Then what? Oh the excitement! We'll wait and see..... ;-D

Pixie - Sorry to read that you've not been well of late. Its sounds like you are on the mend though. Killing some of the bugs off with a glass ( or 2 ) of Red Wine is a always a good idea.

Have a Good Christmas

The choice was getting wet or getting wet. I opted for the wet but warm option rather than the wet, cold and wind swept option! So 1m done at the pool including 2 goals being achieved and some board work. I said a while ago I wanted to be able to do 20 lengths non stop DONE and 10 lengths of front crawl non stop DONE!! So happy pixie. Used a different pool today as I wanted to see about lessons for Gnome. It was a nightmare to locate the car park and once I found it, it was full to the brim with cars circling for spaces so I drove the 200m down the road to the free parking and nabbed the last space there instead! The pool is old so not pretty or ponced up but it is clean and in good repair and they do Saturday lessons and Gnome can start this week! OK so he then has 2 weeks off but how good is that! My other option was the pool near work and a possible start mid February! So just need to get the OK from Gnome and a commitment to get out of bed for a 9:30 lesson every week until March (...

Remember this?

Yes I'm back on the bench :-( That sore foot thing on Wednesday... well it's still here. In typical bruised fashion it hurts more after a period of sitting down/sleep and I've been popping the brufen. There is a slight swelling too. Don't think it is laces ... on closer inspection the pain is (looks at google ... gives up and picks up "how to run injury free" instead) on the sesamoids area of the err middle phalanger (??? impressed hey!) In the same location where you would get morton's neuroma but the description is wrong so I don't think it's that!! (oh the perils of a little knowledge from a book or the web hey!) Anyways this means I'm on the bench. No running. I have 4 or 5 weeks until the Suicide Sixish so no panic, I will take 1 whole week off regardless and see what happens next weekend. Also think I will get some new shoes with more cushioning. Now all I need to do is locate my bike and/or exercise bike from the depths of the garage un...

Time Trial Time!

I’m very poor at pushing myself and doing speed work but recently I’ve started doing a virtual mile “race” each month and 5k too. Last weekend I got a season best on my mile at 10:50 which isn’t fast but the fastest I’ve run for way over 10 years! Today I did a speedier 5k. My last couple have been on the same “course” at home but today I was having my car MOTd so ran were I was. This meant a lot of corners and looping so I wasn’t expecting any improvement but I managed to take 5s off my time!  Ok so again not fast at 36:42 but I’m slow and fat! and I’ve been running for distance and endurance for the last few months.  My “A” race is next weekend after that I’m going to try and work on my speed. I’ll be doing a 5m race series over the winter which will hopefully help.  So I’ll using Ami’s teachings and focusing on imagining working hard to keep going when it hurts.  I won’t get to PB shape yet (well possibly not!) but I hope to take minutes off the best tim...
