This Is Me!

height 5ft 1
weight (this morning) 10st 13
Blood pressure 108/60 (was told this was ridiculously low as expected!)
RHR 52 (seen by me!)
MHR 206 (seen by me)
Blood sugar 4.5 (after 10hr fast at christmas!)

Verdict
I am very healthy, don't worry about the weight and keep running marathons!!

How cool is that! That was from the nurse at my surgery! The 1st medical person (not including forum folk) to not say I need to lose weight!

Also:

She looked at me and said "so how much overweight do you think you are?"
I said "I'm 10st 13 (BMI of 29) at least 1st maybe 2st, been near enough the same weight since I started running 4yrs ago!"
She said "You may be the same weight but have a lot more muscle, I wouldn't be too worried! Keep running the marathons"

Walked out beaming!

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!?!
