Its Just Running

Yesterday we had RJ and family over, as we always do for AFL Grand Final.  What a match that was!!  The mighty Cats were far to dominant for the old Power.  I for one was very happy to see Geelong break their 44 year old drought and win the premiership
Unfortunatley, grand final seems to [...]

Ran early this morning, well early for this household and especially on school holidays.  I ran 30mins again and covered 4.5km like Tuesdays run.  It felt much better today and I think it was because on Tuesday, I ran at 4pm after a busy day with kids and it was a tad warm.  I have [...]

Another slow run today.  I think I just have to face it and say I am crap at running  I did a street run which included a lap of the local lake and then headed home again.  I covered 4.5km with max pace 6:07min/km and avg 7:05min/km.  All up it was a 31:53 minute run [...]

Zipped down to the Tan this morning and was there around 9:15am.  Looked around for RJ and then sent her a sms but she had slept in.  She did run later with her boys but her hip is giving her grief and at this stage I don’t think she will be running at the MM [...]

Just a quick post.  Well, I got a running book today although the Jeff Galloway one that I had Borders put aside for me, was not what I thought it would be.  Kathryn, you were not wrong about finding a park  It was really busy around Lygon Street today and I nearly gave up.  I was set [...]

I went for a run today and lasted 23 minutes , well 23 minutes and 30 secs to be exact!  This is just terrible!!  I guess the last 5 weeks of haphazard running has taken its toll on my cardio fitness which is really quite distressing as I had built up so well.  [...]

So much for my enthusiasic return to training this week.  I have my 9year old home from school as he started vomiting in the early hours of Monday morning whcih continued until about 7pm that night, the poor blighter   He was still a bit headachey and blah yesterday but by the afternoon he seemed to be [...]

I wussed out of the 8km Spring into Shape this morning    I was still undecided last night but got all my running gear ready just in case.  This morning when I woke up I opted for a leisurely morning with the family.  I  had a good snuggly lie in with kids and then [...]
