Frustration

All sorts of things are frustrating me just now!

That phone call hasn't come ... I've chased but nothing yet. Hopefully Monday now!

TW is so close yet miles away! This time next week we (v-rap and I!) will be on our way down south! I've done as much training as I can and now I want to just do it! Taper madness I think they call it!

Heel is not bad, but in my head because I am thinking about it and worrying and thinking about TW every now and then it's a case of ... "oh is it hurting?"

After over a week of no exercising (due to recovering from Wales walk, then jab, then feet up, then "be nice to feet") I'm starting to want to do something! Now the heat has dropped the desire to do something is back too! Today whilst shopping I suddenly ran down a stretch of road, no one was about so it was almost a secret run! I was smiling and giggling because it was raining too! Just as suddenly I stopped with a "stupid pixie, in appropriate foot wear - not even wearing frees!, in appropriate underwear (!) could hurt foot STOP!" It was only a short very short run but nice!

As for now... well I just want to go home! I'm bored and fed up and CBA to do anything! I want to watch Dr Who with Gnome and have a soak in the bath. I may open a bottle of wine but then maybe not as hubby is at 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

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 (...

Planning Ahead

All good plans and all that! A few weeks ago I detailed my planned races as follows: Jan - Brass Monkey Half Feb - Trail Plus Training Camp Feb - Bramley 10m (poss) April - Reading Half April - FLM Support May - Moonwalk Marafun (if I get in!) Sept - Robinhood Half Oct - Great South Run (poss) This is now Jan - Brass Monkey Half Feb - Trail Plus Training Camp April - Reading Half April - FLM Support GSR is only a vague poss now as hubby is working nights so won't get home until the early hours of Saturday so I can't leave Gnome! Which means I would have to travel down Saturday afternoon which isn't the best preparation for a race and PB attempt! So it now looks like I will need to either make this another mainly training year (not a bad thing!) or look for some local races! At this rate it won't be worth joining club in March as I will have nothing to enter and save money off entry fees!! Hey Ho and all that!! Now tomorrow ... hope to do a quick shop 1st thing (new sca...
