finally a training run!

Today, I finally found the energy (and someone to look after Natey) so I could run, this was huge being able to go out at a decent time as evenings I am getting so tired and mornings Simon is off for work,

So, I managed 3 miles, not super fast but definately got there and it has motivated me a little, my leg hurt a bit after, but thats OK, I can try doing more stretches!

Not a bad start maybe I can do 4 miles tomorrow (or even 6)

What Kind of Fool,

Fed up of being Lazy and sitting around thinking about another half marathon 2 months ago I signed up for the SF 1/2 Marathon, hoping I could get some running in the UK, but didnt manage much and I have been working and suffering from tiredness related to the time change! Now I have a few days till the race, I am definitely panicking about how unprepared and heavy I am.  How do you have the energy I am asked, I don't but sometimes you have to dig deep and find your reserves! 

There are 2 options for me,

1 - Not to Run

2 - Run 

What would you do???

Every part of me is definitely hoping step 1 could be an option but for me I signed up for this race to know I could still manage 13.1 miles after my broken leg, so,  OK I wont qualify for the olympics but I know there must be a beer tent at the end (there actually isn't) - surely thats enough motivation.

Realistically I will let myself down if I don't go for it,

I wont break 2 hrs, but if I get to the finish line, maybe it will motivate me for the rest of the summer, I have till Nathaniel's birthday in september to loose the 20 lb necessary to fit my clothes again. So hang on to your Zimmer frames, I am off to the start line.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

so tired so tired, what I would do for a lie in been scheduled to work the past 3 days and although I got saturday off they called me twice between 5.30 and 6 so that was the end of my rest, I really feel I need some rest to reboot.

I am having trouble even contemplating my race on Sunday,

Some happy news though I had a new baby born to me on Saturday, baby Iphone has already made mummy very happy and is so great fun, Simon went and got one for both of us so now we can chat non stop, I really do love it , Thanks Simon!!!

Off to see Mamma mia tonight, but first I need to find a nice glass of wine!!!!
