All Quiet on the Western Front!

Nothing to report!

No exercise, no weight loss, no new kit ... in fact no nothing!

The weather has drained me; can't sleep properly yet really tired! Or maybe that's because I am also not exercising?

Since the stabbing I have stopped constant drug taking (last full day was Saturday) and Sunday I was fine, walked 3m with little to report. The last 2 days at work I have noticed it. Yesterday I put it down to foot wear (summer sandals with heel) and by lunch I was sore. Today it got sore later in the day but I was wearing my frees. Is this being on my feet more, walking about the office and not having my feet raised in the "feet up watch TV"pose? Or boredom at work making things more noticeable? Not sure! V-Rap says it could still be settling in (up to 10days) and if it has not settled by the end of the week have it re-stabbed Monday! Gulp!

TrailWalker is close! Fetch says 10 days! OMG!! So close!

The organisation mails are flying. The panic as to what to wear/take/eat is edging closer! All I know is this - maps/directions/route are for Leon and V-Rap!! Support - Bear is the support meister and with Fraggle and RobW there too we have no worries! So it's just a case of left right left right and keep going!

The TW is followed by a 3 day course for work (and hotel accommodation at The Cavern!!) so my report will be delayed but I am looking forward to this! V-Rap is also VERY aware as to how personal this is to Duck and I and I am sure that she will do everything in her power to get us our medals! Not that we will have any problems!! Wibble!!

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

and then the was three!

Well before now I've had arguments between Pixie and Trixie and today Logic joined in! Pixie siad run yes but not too long cos you ran yesterday and have hardly run in 2 weeks! Trixie said but but but need to do a long run, long runs are good! Logic said runs are good and tomorrow you give blood so won't run and Tuesday you have post blood rest day and a massage! Trixie and Logic then argued it out. Trixie won! Logic then spent the whole run saying, slow down, breath, it's too hot, see now you're paying! Trixie struggled on with the "hey I'm running!" smile on her face until she hit yet another hill when smile vanished and was replaced with serious "I will not give in" face! So that's it then! 6.7m of sllllloooooowww hard work! Will post stats later but they aren't that pretty! But as Leon said - we run because we enjoy it! Today was more of a "I WANT to do a long run" run than a need to do a long run run! Next week I will repea...

Stoppy Sulking Pixie

Ok so if you remember (assuming you were listening!) yesterday I mentioned that today would be swimming! Fraggle had given me some advice on how to improve my front crawl so off I went full of enthusiasm ready to master front crawl! 40 mins later I sulked out of the pool annoyed and frustrating and failing to master the front crawl! See like a lot of casual swimmers I "thrash about making a lot of splashes!" when doing crawl and this means my HR sores and I die at the end of 1 length needing 3-4mins recovering at the side of the pool before I attempt to swim another length in any stroke! Fraggle pointed out that if I place my head in the water properly (like look at the bottom of the pool rather than half under) then slow down, breathe out when in the water the breath in as your head leaves the water (I know what I mean even if you don't!) then it will be easier! Sounded good and practice breathing in the house went well!! I get in the pool - this is it. I can do this! Oh...
