Good News!

Since 7AM yesterday I haven't chucked up!!

Yesterday I ate 2 slices of dry toast and drank 1.5l of lucozade sport! For those of you who know me you will realise just how ill that made me! Toast was only eaten at 8PM because I ached so much and felt so rough I needed drugs and didn't want to take them on a totally empty stomach.

Today I have had 500ml L.sport for breakfast (well brunch as I woke up at 12:30!), 2 slices of toast for lunch (due to more drugs!) and soup and toast for tea (Gnome told me to eat saying drinking LSport alone was not healthy!!) The soup and toast were too much really and I felt really full after.

So I am a lot better and guess I will be returning to work tomorrow.

I do still feel a little weak but given the above diet it's hardly surprising now is it!?!

My throat is still iffy but I think Benz was right, I thought it had something stuck in it, but she suggested it was scratched and given I had some nuts Monday night it could be true. Especially as the feeling has almost gone (and I chucked up whilst I had this "something stuck" sensation!).

I do still hope to travel down to Berkshire at the weekend but I think my weekend 10-11m is off for sure! So I may go down Friday night (assuming I am fit!) and then try a plodette Saturday and if that is fine frolic on Sunday! Fingers crossed as I haven't seen Fraggle since FLM or Bear and Spans since before that and I really want to go!

hope you can make it Pix. If you're darn sarf and don't feel up to a frolic, then you can just come along and be sociable anyway :o)

morning

I'm glad you are feeling better Pix! You will notice that I have at last logged onto the Trailwalk blog. Did you know that the entries are open? Are we still going for it?

Don't go overdoing it now! You need a few days of good nutrition to build up your system, or you will just go down with something else.

Remember this?

Yes I'm back on the bench :-( That sore foot thing on Wednesday... well it's still here. In typical bruised fashion it hurts more after a period of sitting down/sleep and I've been popping the brufen. There is a slight swelling too. Don't think it is laces ... on closer inspection the pain is (looks at google ... gives up and picks up "how to run injury free" instead) on the sesamoids area of the err middle phalanger (??? impressed hey!) In the same location where you would get morton's neuroma but the description is wrong so I don't think it's that!! (oh the perils of a little knowledge from a book or the web hey!) Anyways this means I'm on the bench. No running. I have 4 or 5 weeks until the Suicide Sixish so no panic, I will take 1 whole week off regardless and see what happens next weekend. Also think I will get some new shoes with more cushioning. Now all I need to do is locate my bike and/or exercise bike from the depths of the garage un...

There are some truely wonderful people out there

just recieved this by mail from a fellow blogger. I want to share it so everyone can benefit as I have. I've wiped my tears away and I've printed this up so when I am getting sulky and down I will read this and remember .... Aim High! (how appropriate is that name!) Don't EVER think that you any any less of a runner than anyone else Kim, You show a dedication and determination that puts many people to shame. You have a goal for your marathon time which is truly amazing - and I am inspired by it..We all have our dream peaks (sorry about the mountain reference again - I'm a mountaineer too!) - and they are a reflection of who we are and what we are able to acheive - for ourselves - and anyone who can't see the value of that endeavour is blind indeed.When you run your next pb - to me that is as phenomenal an achievement as any world record..and I will bounce up and down like a mad thing at the thought of it - and I get pretty animated when I'm excited about somethi...

Fetch!

Being an active member of the Runners World Forum I always liek to support others if I can. Lately we have had Wild Will start and e-nutrican site at XHog - Be Fit Not Fat and we also have Fetch with his excellent site FetchEveryone . I signed up to Fetch's site when he 1st mentioned it and have to admit I hadn't been there for a while - but today I did! He's really done a lot! He's added in a feature where you can see who else is at your race, race reviews, your PB's and a training log. OK so the log isn't fancy but I love it 'cos it does what you want and also gives some encouragement by showing your weekly milage and predictions for various race distances! Pixie likes! As such I will look forward to my tempo run tomorrow lunchtime (boss IS away!!) and will record it with interest - just need to study the map to see where in the exciting Loughborough town center to go!!
