Well that was better than expected!

Back from club ... shorter run tonight as I warned Brian I had hardly run so only 3.6m but this did include some faster sections. No coughing fits (well a few throat clearing coughs but none that made me stop!) and although the HR maxed at 195 (!!!) on 3 occasions I felt OK. Could't have done much more though!

Oh and for Beanz and Benz and any other 4hr 20 milers, there is a chance that I could act as a sweeper as such and do a slow trot at the Ashby 20 - will know more after the next meeting that the ladies captain goes to and update you!

Bed now!

Beanz I've seen 206 as a max HR!
The fact that I have an average HR in the 180's on 2hrs runs means I must have a high HR and possibly and even higher max (my former trainer thought it may even be as high as 215!)
I just laugh at the 220-age forumla! Or maybe I am actually 14???!!

The max I've seen is 186 - which makes me 34 - I have to say I feel more like 34 than I do 52!

And I am probably even younger really because my HRM does not store the max value of a session so I might have missed higher, or not pushed myself hard enough.

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!?!
