Just a slow one today........

Have just taken a slow jog up the drive and round the field today.......well I call it a jog but you could call it a run I guess as there's no difference between the two for me and thankfully Mr DHL had already been so I managed another non-scaring day! I've been reading a couple of the running magazines and have to admit to being quite scared by some of the training programmes, 'jog at 60% of your effort' or whatever erm well here it's just a case of actually keeping going I'm afraid.......maybe I'll worry about the 60% stuff next week/month/year....and how do you actually know what 60% is...there's nothing in the garmin book about that......

We went camping this weekend and I was actually quite chuffed as I chased Ollie for quite a distance and wasn't worn out! Quite worrying really that it takes a marathon for me to actually be able to keep up with the Small People but hey it's a start I guess.

I'm looking to try and do about 10 miles a week for the next couple of weeks either going 3 or 4 times. The hardest thing at the minute is fitting in running with the Small People and M. Today they are in summer camp/nursery so that's ok but trying to eat in time to make sure I can run when they are either out or in bed is quite entertaining....there is no relevant section in my Organised Mum diary for marathon runners to be.....with all the running going on at the Purple Place at the minute, maybe I should suggest it for next year!!

  1. Hi there, I'm in for the LM 2010 too. Keep it up, I started running 18 months ago and never dreamed I'd be as fit as I am.
