hmmmm

Well I took diclofenac again today and by lunch the foot felt better ... still there but not hurting. Anyway you always have the "it's there" feeling when something has been "wrong" don't you! Seeing as it was such a lovely day I went for some fresh air. Foot was fine! So I walked further. Got back and foot not so fine by the time I was at my desk. huh!

Still have a bump, hopefully v-rap will be able to advise me 'cos I am not a happy pixie at all.

Work is great though. Jan course was almost cancelled but is now in Manchester instead of London! I've been playing with scripts again too!! I've had one script update go live today, hopefully another tomorrow and will be updating our tracking system to go live tomorrow AM as well! >beams pathetically<

All really good. The only downside is I feel awful about not running and my weight. I'm seriously considering a proper return to WW on Tuesday and given it at least until Christmas. Not running this week has seen my eating go again and I feel like I have gained those 2-3lb I had lost. Most fed up. If I do join it will be a full on public thing. Will also need to find some other form of exercise if v-rap says carry on resting. I can't just run and stop. Swimming isn't so easy these days with new job (why oh why doesn't the flash gym do swim only?) so must fins something and do it. No excuses, especially if I do get into FLM!!

There are some truely wonderful people out there

just recieved this by mail from a fellow blogger. I want to share it so everyone can benefit as I have. I've wiped my tears away and I've printed this up so when I am getting sulky and down I will read this and remember .... Aim High! (how appropriate is that name!) Don't EVER think that you any any less of a runner than anyone else Kim, You show a dedication and determination that puts many people to shame. You have a goal for your marathon time which is truly amazing - and I am inspired by it..We all have our dream peaks (sorry about the mountain reference again - I'm a mountaineer too!) - and they are a reflection of who we are and what we are able to acheive - for ourselves - and anyone who can't see the value of that endeavour is blind indeed.When you run your next pb - to me that is as phenomenal an achievement as any world record..and I will bounce up and down like a mad thing at the thought of it - and I get pretty animated when I'm excited about somethi...

To Swim or Not To Swim

That's my pondering today! Yesterday I had a bit of a headache and today I woke with the stick slightly sore "cold" like throat. Then when I was at work I felt that coldy icky yucky feeling. I've eaten now and feel better in that the icky feeling has gone but still got the head and the throat. Swimming stuff is in the car as I was planning a 40 mins pool jogging session. Now I don't know. Will see how I feel later on. I want to swim but then I also don't want to make any lurgy that I may be harbouring any worse! We'll see! So did you guess??? Yes of course I went! Well it was just me head and if I was running outside I would have run! Anyway 55mins of which 40 was pool running and then several good lengths of swimming which is starting to feel good and fitness for swimming is improving too! Now I have a stinking headache and can confirm my throat feels like crap! That may have been my last exercise for a few days :-( Other news .. I wasn't going to say...

Gulp

I'm strangely nervous about tomorrow. I know it's only 2.5m (x2!) but there will only be a max of 50 runners per leg (only 45 teams last year I think). I'm sure my 12mm pace will be last. I have a lovely casserole (loadsa spuds!) for tea tonight and 2 glasses of wine. I'm now on the non-alcoholic fluids. The lucozade is ready to make and I'm still not sure what to wear! I was going for shorts and vest. Then capri legs and crop top/vest but I'm not sure! If I'm cold/cool I will run faster! But then I don't want to burn up and crash or freeze waiting for the start. If I wear layers will I be too hot .... blah blah blah. Help!! Still not sure what to do "gadget wise". Just watch and guess extra mileage, GPS and stop/start with each warm up, race and cool down, HRM and GPS or just HRM and watch!??!! I'm thinking that I will do leg 1 (1.5m) as a warm up leaving before the race to make sure I am ready. Then stop for some stretches and strides. Th...
