Back on Track

Having slobbed for the last couple of weeks due to exhaustion and holiday today I picked up my Spans Plan and uncovered the tready!

As suggested I am doing week 2 the week 3 before going back to week 7 (which is where I fell over last time!)

So 4X 5:2 - runs started at 7.5kmph, then crept to 7.7 for a minute or two, then 7.9 and finally a 30 second burst at 8.1 just to remind myself what tired felt like!! I didn't use my HRM so can't tell you any stats but I felt fine!

Tomorrow I am off swimming after work as hubby is on a long shift and will be gone before I get home. (trying out the Fraggle tips!)

Wednesday is 7 sets of 5:2. Thursday sees hubby working a 12hr shift again so I will do my long run (70 mins 3:2 I think!)and Friday I am off to collect Gnome so may have a swim before work. Saturday nowt apart from driving home. Sunday will be speedwork on the tready as Gnome and I will be dog sitting as hubby and his parents go to watch (or not as the case may be!) the Cricket (yawn).

Now it's bed time 'cos I have finished my Kelly Holmes book - it was very good too!

Nite!

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...
