Been Pole Dancing??

Most people see you hot sweaty and in running kit and say "been jogging?" not the chap I work with!

For some stupid reason I decided a lunchtime run in 23C + was an excellent idea!! I came back 45mins later, dripping and red and was greated by a cheerful "been pole dancing luv!" Made me smile that did!!

Anyway this session. 5mins walk run warm up then 8 sets of 3:1. Mile 1 took 12:30 despite the slow 1st 5mins! Felt good, pace was nice and even and not that hard. Mile two also 12:30. Ok So the legs were getting tired by then! Something to do with yesterdays hard session and the searing heat!! Mile 3 was basically a crawl! By the time I got to my cool down I was very happy to walk!!

Now if I could find the person who said today's run was a good thing to do I would have serious words with them!!

Still I can now happily relax for the next 2 days without feeling guilty after 7 days of training!

This week in summery:
Monday: Swim - 1.2m (1hr 3)
Tuesday: Run - 2m (27mins)
Wednesday: Swim - 1.2m (59mins)
Thursday: Cycle (X2) - 7.2m (40mins)
Swim - 0.75m (34mins)
Run - 1/4m (!! 4mins!)
Friday: Run - 3.3m (44mins)

Not Bad!

Bike training would be good.

;o)

Seriously Pix. I did alot of bike training last summer and this year I've ridden it around 4-5 times during the winter. It felt a whole lot different when I got on it a few days ago and I'm seriously behind with confidence. Is work near enough to cycle to...? (Bearing in mind that this is coming from someone who cycles 24 miles to work)

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!?!
