before I go and I've just been given permission to tell a sales person that the work they wanted to do is "not my problem"!! That was good!
Also got a leaving card from the people in the Windsor office which is nice as I left there just over 2yrs ago. Bless!
The card reads “Leaving? Are you sure you want to go ahead with this? Just look at what you are leaving behind … OK point taken!”
My entry for Brass Monkey went in today! So now is time to start running (not pottering!) and start thinking about that shiny new PB! So I'm out pounding the streets of Loughborough today come rain or shine (and looking out of the window it looks like rain!)
I am expecting to be very tired in the 1st few weeks at the new place but hope to still get some running in ... the tready may come into use as it means I can easily do a run and if I am tired I can stop and shower without having to keep going when I can't!
This weekend I will be cross training ... need to empty the kitchen and utility room for the workmen which also means that by the end of next week I will also be able to get to the tready as it is currently hidden behind a pile of boxes!!
Run Edit:
OMG what was that?
Well this morning I looked out of the window whilst sat here at work and the sky was black. V-Rap in Brum had reported ran so all in all I was expecting a wet run. How wrong was I! Boy it's warm out!
Plan was a steady but continuous run. Warm up of 5mins walking ... done! Then I started to trot. Felt awful and calves ached still. After 5mins I walked, mainly due to the traffic at the roundabout! I then decided sod it I would just run how I felt. So off I went running faster but naturally this meant I was going to run walk as my aerobic fitness could not cope with runnng continuously at that pace.
As I ran my mind wandered (as it does when we run!) and I started thinking "I'm really leaving! This could be my last run round here! Oh God help! Can I do this? Panic? Why am I leaving? Would it not have been easier to just stay? ....."
As these thoughts rushed through my mind my pace quicken, then I got to the arrgghhh can't breath stage and walked. I would walk and wander and think then realise I was still walking and start running, then run too hard .... etc!
When I was actually running it was good! A good pace and form was good (I think!) but I walked much more than planned so overall distance is low!
I was also thinking about running once I move, and trying to fit in any training! Losing weight, Brass Monkey, trying to run, get fitter .... yes my mind was in major over drive!
Now I just need to collate those thoughts and form an orderly plan and try to keep to it! Help!
