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

There are some truely wonderful people out there

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

Gulp

I'm strangely nervous about tomorrow. I know it's only 2.5m (x2!) but there will only be a max of 50 runners per leg (only 45 teams last year I think). I'm sure my 12mm pace will be last. I have a lovely casserole (loadsa spuds!) for tea tonight and 2 glasses of wine. I'm now on the non-alcoholic fluids. The lucozade is ready to make and I'm still not sure what to wear! I was going for shorts and vest. Then capri legs and crop top/vest but I'm not sure! If I'm cold/cool I will run faster! But then I don't want to burn up and crash or freeze waiting for the start. If I wear layers will I be too hot .... blah blah blah. Help!! Still not sure what to do "gadget wise". Just watch and guess extra mileage, GPS and stop/start with each warm up, race and cool down, HRM and GPS or just HRM and watch!??!! I'm thinking that I will do leg 1 (1.5m) as a warm up leaving before the race to make sure I am ready. Then stop for some stretches and strides. Th
