Festive Season

Well the festive season is upon us!

Work Christmas do this week (no I am not going!), RW East Midlands Social next Friday (yes I am going!), Snow this week and the decorations are starting to be seen!

Due to husbands shift pattern I have to take some time off at Christmas to look after Gnome which means I have almost 3 weeks off, and the week before that I am collecting him from school. So I am going to take advantage of this and try to kick in some cross training and also work on my healthy eating and hopefully lose some weight and get some good habits formed (well they say it takes 21 times to create a habit don't they!)

So I have drawn up a short of plan. Spans is currently on the bench due to an eye injury so I am assuming levels as they have been! With just 52 days until Brass Monkey I need to get as much fitness in as possible and seeing as I have the exercise bike and the tready in the garage I should use them!

Tonight I have tready hills ....
Warm up
4 sets of 90 secs at 3%, 90 secs recovery
cool down
So a short session. If I feel good I may jump on the bike for a bit too or extend the cool down with a walk/run. We'll see!

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!?!
