So here starts THE week … when madness hits the forums. All those questions about cheques with people trying to work out when they will be cashed and what that implies! Are they in? did they bequeath? Oh so much excitement! So many questions! The madness will run for days and days, maybe even a month or more!
And I'll miss out on it all :-( as I don't have access to the forums at work. Yes I can check up at night but it just isn't the same! The buzz isn't there! So even if I check my bank account 20 times a day it won't be the same. Without the forum I can't share the tension and excitement and grief/sorrow or joy at the outcome! Yes J and S are runners but they don't race so don't care about FLM entries!
Anyway I have to say a MASSIVE WELL DONE to v-rap for a storming run at the weekend! If she carries on like that she'll be running a GFA time at FLM itself! Very inspirational! A 47minute PB for her! Mind you with my PB being 6hrs 43 I should be able to beat that!! Haha! Hehe! Obviously I first need to actually start running, then do some consistent training, lose weight, get faster, get in the miles oh and get into a marafun!! (note to self check bank account tomorrow!)
As for me? Well foot is feeling better and I haven't taken drugs today but I still know it is there. I am hoping this means that I may be able to try a walk by the end of the week and maybe just maybe a walk/jog at the weekend??? Who knows! Hope so as I am getting frustrated! I'm sure the tiredness also relates to lack of running in the fresh air and BM is getting closer! If I can start to jog this weekend or the early part of next week then the Suicide Sixish is on! OK so I will be really slow but I don't care! It's fun!
I've been massaging my calves lately as I have tight calves most of the time and they also say that extensor tendon issues can be related (isn't everything!??!!) and add the trouble sleeping I will be adding some stretches in and maybe some basic yoga (from a book as I've never done any classes!) Either that or herbal drugs!
Gnome is away with the in-laws this week and hubby is working nights so I don't expect much sleep :-( I am, however, having a flying visit by Running Duck tomorrow on a stop over visit to view a university. Well I think I am!! Apart from that life is it's normal jolly self!
