ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I am SOOOooooo tired!

Firstly let me just say X-Ray was clear so 2wks off and then try again!! Yippeee!

Second, as you can see from above I have returned to WW. Well I can't run for 2 wks, then have a wks course making 3 weeks of seriously having to watch my food! If I follow a sensible plan I should lose within those 3wks, get all motivated and carry on!

As for being tired? Well I think it is a combination of brain working with new job (which I still love!) and lack of sleep (hubby on nights) combined with lack of fresh air due to no running! In fact I am so tired that it's now 9:15 and I am getting ready for bed! How sad is that?!??!!

Tomorrow I have a nice long drive as I am off south. Gnome is on half term last week so I am seeing all family members and leaving him there! So I need to try and be awake for that!

I really want to get some swimming in or cycling next week but the way I have felt these last 2-3 days I doubt if I can get up in time to get to the pool or get the bike out of the garage and on the car! I will try but like Spans I am definitely feeling the effect of swapping jobs!

Tuesday I have another workshop too. So that's more time away from the desk and more time with biscuits in my face! I am pleased to say that today I declined a chocolate so who knows!! Oh and I will also be seeing Duck on Tuesday too! Oh and doing my 1st proper WW weigh-in and then having a Chinese!! Whoops!!

In the meantime ZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Nite!

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...
