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.

Ten Week Training Block

Monday is the start of a new 10 week training block. Well Ok it's the start of my second round of The Six Pack Revolution this time I am doing the sculpt program. I did Signature in May and did really well. Lost 21lbs and rediscovered my love of running lots (rather than just running!) which has meant that I have had a great, extended, training block for my race next weekend. Problem was that at the end of the 10 weeks I slowly but surely reverted to a lot of my old habits and as such have regained 4-5lbs. Luckily my running has kept it to just 4-5lbs - I know if I hadn't been doing so many miles then it would have been more. So next week I start again, and I am trying a different mindset. Instead of seeing it as a 10 week program I am thinking of it as a 10 week training block. The say Winter miles make for Summer smiles but also the winter is a time for more indoor training! When most runners hide away a bit but do more of the stuff we should do all year as we then have an ex...

Time Trial Time!

I’m very poor at pushing myself and doing speed work but recently I’ve started doing a virtual mile “race” each month and 5k too. Last weekend I got a season best on my mile at 10:50 which isn’t fast but the fastest I’ve run for way over 10 years! Today I did a speedier 5k. My last couple have been on the same “course” at home but today I was having my car MOTd so ran were I was. This meant a lot of corners and looping so I wasn’t expecting any improvement but I managed to take 5s off my time!  Ok so again not fast at 36:42 but I’m slow and fat! and I’ve been running for distance and endurance for the last few months.  My “A” race is next weekend after that I’m going to try and work on my speed. I’ll be doing a 5m race series over the winter which will hopefully help.  So I’ll using Ami’s teachings and focusing on imagining working hard to keep going when it hurts.  I won’t get to PB shape yet (well possibly not!) but I hope to take minutes off the best tim...

Sensible Head

The choice was getting wet or getting wet. I opted for the wet but warm option rather than the wet, cold and wind swept option! So 1m done at the pool including 2 goals being achieved and some board work. I said a while ago I wanted to be able to do 20 lengths non stop DONE and 10 lengths of front crawl non stop DONE!! So happy pixie. Used a different pool today as I wanted to see about lessons for Gnome. It was a nightmare to locate the car park and once I found it, it was full to the brim with cars circling for spaces so I drove the 200m down the road to the free parking and nabbed the last space there instead! The pool is old so not pretty or ponced up but it is clean and in good repair and they do Saturday lessons and Gnome can start this week! OK so he then has 2 weeks off but how good is that! My other option was the pool near work and a possible start mid February! So just need to get the OK from Gnome and a commitment to get out of bed for a 9:30 lesson every week until March (...
