Or am I?!?!
I've been tired since my course and tired Pixie people look at food for energy.
It was WW last night and to be honest I was expecting a 2lb weight gain, despite all the exercise I did! In reality the scales said 4lb gain. I was shocked and annoyed. On reflection I did have a late lunch because I ran at lunch which was a lot of soup (2 large mugs) and a further load of drinks as I was thirsty and tired and trying not to eat! So I should have expected it to be higher but it didn't make it easier.
Whilst in London I bought myself some nice new bling chav shoes and yesterday I actually got to use them. I wasn't pushing and did take walk breaks (was with J) and came in at just 8secs off the 3.2m loop PB. The only down side was the shoes now have less shine and I have a hint of blister. It's in the same place as I had the other day so I think it is new shoes rather than wrong shoes related.
Tomorrow I will again run with the boys at work - not sure if it will be the shorter route or the longer one but expect it will be the longer one! Depends how we feel! J may be after a PB (he missed it by 2secs last week!) so I may potter alone!
Then Friday ....! Well the local leisure centre to work is doing an indoor "triathlon" for Children In Need (row, cycle and run) which J, S and I are interested in. It's 1km on the rower followed by 2m on the exercise bike and 1m on the tready with a donation of £3 so why not! Could be a laugh!
Sunday of course is the Suicide! Now from my last 2 runs Fetch has predicted a 10k PB in the making but the Suicide is not PB territory! It's wet, muddy and fun! I did 1hrs 28 in 2004 and would be happy around that time but naturally would like to beat it!
Christmas shopping is almost done as I am able to pop to the local big shopping park at lunchtime so haven't had to take time off this year. This is good as I don't have much holiday having changed jobs but I still have some time! Thing is I don't feel like taking holiday as such as I still enjoy work!! I will take a day off for Gnome's Christmas play though!!

what are these blingy shoes like then?
glad you are still enjoying the job pix
Nike Percepts very silver!!
Benz I was on the toilet during the night - 4 times! (too much info?) had to use imodium for it's proper use (not the "doing long run" use) and was really worried I wouldn't be able to go in today! Can't remember the last time I've worried about having to call in sick! But I did manage to go in! and run at lunch too! So happy!
