Tri Training! LOL!

Ok so if I do this tri I have just over a week! I say if because I have had no reply to my mail saying I would like to do it but I am very very slow!

Last night, as I will be tonight, I was in the pool. I tried to do some "quality lengths!". It seems I can consistently keep a good pace doing breast stroke (60m (2 lengths) consistently in about 1min 4-45) and I can do that for ages. When I start front crawl I can do 2-3 lengths at about 1:50 then get slower until I can't do any more! I managed 10 lengths continuous front crawl and by the time I finished my 60m was taking just over 2mins!!

It total I did 1920m bring my nessie challenge to 274lengths! Another hour in the pool.

Today I will be doing the same ... but in my Enel and shorts!!

Tomorrow I will be running at lunchtime and then tomorrow night we are going down south. This means no weekend training which isn't too bad as I would have trained for several days .. in fact I would have done something every day since last Saturday so 7 days!!

Next week hubby is on mornings so I am on the morning school run ... will try to get on my exercise bike and tready before school if I can and hopefully get the bike out itself!! Gulp!!

you can always put a dri-fit type t-shirt over your enell if you feel a bit,er, exposed. (that's what I did when I did my one and (so far) only tri)

why not go out on the bike in the morning instead of being cooped up in the garage?

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!?!
