Friday Fun

Today I have 2 events planned:

  1. Mini Midlands social!
  2. I WILL run!

I also plan to restrain myself and not let 1st line support wind me up and get me stress/comfort eating!

Well that's the plan anyway!

Currently sat here at work listening to Christmas songs whilst wearing my "Happy Hat" AKA a santa's hat!!

lunchtime edit ....

Well I've been out running! Managed 4.6m in 55mins so a second or two over 12mm pace. HR was up and I really can not imagine keeping that pace for 13.1m let alone anything faster. If I was still aiming for sub 2:30 I would need 11:27mm pace on average - now updated ETA to 2:45 and it will be close! I hope that the HR is only up as I finally get over my cold and that once that drops the pace will come with it! I have 2hrs to do Sunday and would like at least 9m to be dragged out!

Still wearing my happy hat too!! Maybe I should wear it to the social as I now have really bad hat hair!!

Remember Pix - BM is still a while away - and it's very different running in an event than it is on your own..!!

Okay - here's the deal - we'll meet up before FLM!!!!
We'll pick a time and place - and just do it!!

:o)

(ask Beanz - she'll tell you that I mean it..!!)

Oh the delights of 1st line support. I find killing the offending user relieves the need for comfort eating. May not solve the problem but makes you feel better ;-)

PS Good run

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!?!
