Another Day Written Off

I'm starting to think that I should stop having targets, forget the GFA and just enjoy running. I keep on having so many set backs.

Last night I was tired and in bed at 10:30. At 2AM I wake up with a dodgy belly, 2:30 - 3:30 I'm in the bathroom, not a pretty sight. Go back to bed now freezing cold so can't sleep as I am shivering. Up again later to chuck up again (WW chicken tikka is the problem!). Then at 6-7 (lost track of time) I tell hubby I am not going to work. He asks how I feel. I say "still feel sick" at which point I jump out of bed and run to the bathroom again!

So I am drained. Not eaten for almost 24hrs. Sat here drinking Lucozade (need some energy). Feel like something is stuck in my throat (from 1st chucking up but obviously not blocked as I have chucked up twice since!!) sorry is this too much info??

Needless to say I am not running today, and probably will stay at home and not run tomorrow either!

It's good to have targets. If you think SMART (sorry if you've been bored by this before), it will help you to set good targets.

Specific - GFA
Measurable - yes
Achievable - up to you
Relevant - yes to your running
Timely - when are you going to do it?

GFA doesn't have to be 2006/7/8. It could be on one of those x0 birthday years.

Don't give up, just re-assess where you are.

All that up-chucking sounds nasty. Bleurgh.

Kim, GFA is a fantastic target to aim for so don't give up (you are not known as a quitter...). Winter is a traditional time for getting ill and your body screwing up your training plans. Rest and get well!

get well soon, and *don't* even think about driving down for the frolic unless you're 100% better :o)
