Just a Quick one.....

to say that I am worried about my food intake and that I am also thinking more about food as fuel and a recovery tool. I'm looking at different sports drinks and gels and even started to use a recovery drink.

Someone once said to me that the hardest part of the London Marathon was getting to the start line. Having failed to get there last year I'm being much more cautious this year! If a recovery milk drink helps then I will drink it even if milk is vile stuff!

Mum has bought me 2 sports nutritian books for Christmas which I will be reading as soon as I get them. I doubt if they will be as good as Paula's book (finished that last night!) but whereas Paula's book was inspirational to get my butt out of the door and work harder, I hope that these will stop the self distruct mode and also aid in the training process.

I will, of course, note anything of interest here including any recipes. I do have the Olympic cookbook - must try some of those recipes too!

Anyway must dash to school then work oh and get some petrol too otherwise I won't get to club tonight!
laters!

The Next Three Weeks

So I have a few busy weeks ahead that may, or may not, affect what happens here. So this weekend I am running the Chester metric marathon - should do about 3:30 and get a PB by around 30 mins if things go to plan. Next week I am on holiday and have the in-laws visiting which will be nice. Then after then I have 2 weeks of jury service in Derby. I really want to get a case as I am really interested in knowing what actually happens and what it's like in court. But knowing my luck I will have 2 weeks of waiting for nothing. I have Ami's zoom calls to review and take notes on, books to read, coloring/drawing to try my hand at and Loki to watch! After that the exciting news is my part time request has gone through so from 4th December I will be part time. Very exciting. Then hopefully I can start a potential path to being a swimming teacher. Fun days ahead

What Are You??

Apparently I am a geek after spending some time chatting to a first line support person and comparing degrees!! I am also apparently an executive as I earn more than a certain sum of money! This I must point out is executive in the eyes of a Midlands person and not a southern!! I think I am a runner and a mother because I run and have a son! I don't think I have a career and would struggle to define what I really do! Talking of which I may change the address for this site to blog.html or similar because if I do go job hunting I am not sure if my made ramblings should be front page news!! hehe!! I currently work in IT doing support with a hint of customer service at second line. I run and I'm trying to learn to draw! So what or who are you!?!
