Today's Challenge!

The challenge today is to remove the remaining 8 teacakes from my desk and deliver them to the Cavern tomorrow! ALL 8!

I also intend to do a munchtime potter ... I have a new kit bag which is a lot bigger so can also carry a large towel meaning no more "oh it's raining" excuses for cancelling runs!

It's a short run of 5 sets of 3:3. Nothing more or less (apart from warm up/cool down walk!) as I am (coughs loudly) racing Sunday!! I will report back later!

Edit ....

First - teacakes hidden in carrier bag out of sight and ready to go home!

Also I am pleased to report that I have run!! I did the full 5 sets and realised when I got back that it should have been 4 sets! Which explains why the last one was so hard! Still as Spans says it shows I could do it and extra sets are never wasted!!

First few sets were good, sub 10mm pace and the 3mins walk was enough to recover. The 4th one was harder and just over 10mm pace the last was about 11:20 pace!

Hope to do a short run with Leon tomorrow and have a natter. I don't pronate much and I am wondering if the shoes I wear may make issues worse rather than better seeing as all my injuries have been lower leg! So it will be good to have someone watch me run.

Sunday is race day!

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!?!
