Olympic Dream 10km

Posted by: Lee on: July 27, 2008

running
I entered this event on Thursday as I needed to run long today and I knew the only way I would get out there was if I was doing a Fun Run.  The cold weather is playing havoc with me at the moment  I have never done the Olympic Dream before and I really liked [...]

12 week star team challenge
As the title states, no stars this week for me as I bombed out in the fruit and veg department, and I didn’t lose any weight  I  only missed out by a couple of serves so I was happy with my effort but my not losing anything, well thats [...]

running
I set the alarm for 6am this morning and when it went off, I got up, looked outside and it was raining.  Now, because I had lost my mojo, I went back to bed, there was no way I was running in the cold and the rain.  15 minutes later I was up again checking, still [...]

Why is it when you get on a real good roll, something comes along and stuffs it up??  I was so motivated, on track and feeling great and then I get sick!  I haven’t ran since the 2nd July and now I feel as though I am down in the dumps and I am not even [...]

12 week star team challenge

Posted by: Lee on: July 12, 2008

I have joined a 12 week on-line Weight Watchers challenge with the goal of losing my damn pesky 5kg in this time frame.  What sucked me into this one, as I have joined many and failed dismally, is you are rewarded with sparkly stars when you achieve something.  Each week there is a specific goal, [...]

I hate being sick

I have been sick  
Started with the scratchy throat last Tuesday, day before I ran in the rain and by Friday although still no cold in sight, just felt unwell.  Had tickets for the matinee session of Circus Oz on Saturday and although I really felt like pulling the pin, I panadoled myself [...]

running in the rain

Posted by: Lee on: July 2, 2008

I decided while waiting for the rain to stop, I would get on top of my chores which included two baskets of washing that needed to be folded.  I honestly don’t know where all the washing/folding comes from in this household but it always there waiting to be done, it drives me insane!!  Got everything done and [...]

Rat Run

Posted by: Lee on: July 1, 2008

I am going to have to work out some kind of schedule with my blogging as it seems to be getting done weekly!
Last week I stuck to my schedule of runs and Pilates, and on Sunday did part of the Rat Run with some Coolrunners.  RJ was originally working but I managed to talk her into giving up her [...]
