Tick Tock ... Tick Tock

The clock is ticking! Just look up there above this post and you can see it!

Not long now!

Down to single figures!

TW fever is reaching a fever pitch!

When I need reminding why I am doing it I read Meerkat's reports for 2004 and 2005!!

The team now includes V-Rap and this will be her 4th TW! Do we really need a map??

Meerkat really highlights the emotions well. I got all excited and nervous and anxious and everything just reading them! I could see the checkpoints in my minds eye! I could feel the atmosphere! I so want to get on and do this! I WANT my medal!!! (and curry!) We WILL slay that dragon!

In the meantime I am wibbling about my heel (sure that's in my head!) and "stuff"!! Forming long lists of "stuff to take" and "stuff to wear" and today my mailbox has been stuffed to the rafters with TW chatter! Who is driving whom from where? Who has tents? Who wants what to eat? .......

Saturday I am off ice-skating with Gnome, V-Rap and the raptors as well as Leon and his sprogs!! So with 3 of the team there ... bubble wrap anyone??

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!?!

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...
