And so for an update ...

Well FLM is now a memory - I went there and slayed the Dragon and have the medal and T-shirt to prove it!
Anyway since then I've been really tired and also suffered from the "Not quiet a cold" which has developed into a "almost a cold" thing! Which means I've done lots of resting and no exercising which isn't a bad thing anyway!
So what now ... well I'm going to start back slowly, physio has said to cross train for a further couple of weeks (I see him next week having turned up 24hrs late for this week's appointment!). I'm also still toying with the idea of the treadmill. I'd love one but then again it's a lot of money to spend if I am not going to use it!
Anyway so what are my plans - well I do really want to improve now and I'm now thinking long term instead of the next race or event. So I will be updating this site to reflect the new goals in life and make it a post FLM rather than pre-FLM site, and I am not entering next year's FLM, no really I am not!! I'm going to qualify for my next FLM!
One final thought to share as I go (thanks to Honda)

Set those long term goals, and do a few events along the way as a bit of letting off steam (and , dare I say it, "fun"!)

will be with you all the way Pix

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!?!

Planning Ahead

All good plans and all that! A few weeks ago I detailed my planned races as follows: Jan - Brass Monkey Half Feb - Trail Plus Training Camp Feb - Bramley 10m (poss) April - Reading Half April - FLM Support May - Moonwalk Marafun (if I get in!) Sept - Robinhood Half Oct - Great South Run (poss) This is now Jan - Brass Monkey Half Feb - Trail Plus Training Camp April - Reading Half April - FLM Support GSR is only a vague poss now as hubby is working nights so won't get home until the early hours of Saturday so I can't leave Gnome! Which means I would have to travel down Saturday afternoon which isn't the best preparation for a race and PB attempt! So it now looks like I will need to either make this another mainly training year (not a bad thing!) or look for some local races! At this rate it won't be worth joining club in March as I will have nothing to enter and save money off entry fees!! Hey Ho and all that!! Now tomorrow ... hope to do a quick shop 1st thing (new sca...
