Sulking ... Again!

Last week I was complaining that this lurgy wouldn't go or indeed become a proper cold I could get over. Today I am still complaining! Throat is now sore (tyrozets rock!) and I am snotty and tired despite a decent nights sleep so I've taken loadsa drugs today.

I therefore declare today to be a rest and long soak in a hot bath day! Just a shame I have to wait until tonight to have the long soak bit as I have to go to work!

I'm annoyed. I have Reading in under 3 weeks and this weekend I was supposed to be running then cycling then running then cycling with Beanz and marshaling at the Ashby 20. Now I don't know! If the lurgy comes out then it will be a no but if it just lurks like it has done and throat gets no worse then a yes. If it lurks but throat stays sore then maybe no to the ride in the fresh air. AARrrgggghhhhhh!

Somebody tell me what to do please!

Edit ... and now I have what sounds like smokers cough, but I don't smoke! Looks like a few days rest for me :-(

don't worry about Saturday - if you are up to it, we'll do it, if not I'll get mrbeanz to drop me off somewhere a long way off and I'll plod home!

you mustn't make it worse by coming out in the cold and damp on Saturday

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 (...

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...

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...
